hi there!

I'm an industrial designer based in LA, currently studying at Art Center College of Design and Design Academy Eindhoven. Ever since I was young, my mom and I shared a secret ritual. Whether in our hometown in Korea or the neighborhood I grew up in California, we would simply enjoy sessions of ‘people-watching’. These sessions trained my eye to discover pivotal details in the overlooked negative space and stirred a passion in me to kindle memories in these hidden opportunities through form, color, and design.

I value the subtle, personal, and human experiences I can create through design that transcends just 'things'. With keen sensibility, optimism for the future, and love for building relationships, I strive to craft stories and empowering design solutions and experiences that last beyond the physical object itself. 

Nice to meet you!

I am an industrial designer in based in LA, currently in my third year studying at Art Center College of Design. Ever since I was young, my mom and I shared a secret ritual. Whether in our hometown in Seoul, or the neighborhood I grew up in California, we would simply enjoy sessions of ‘people-watching’. These sessions trained my eye to discover pivotal details in the often overlooked negative space and stirred a passion in me to kindle memories in these hidden opportunities through form, color, and design.

I value the subtle + personal experiences I can create through design that transcends 'things'. With my crazy work ethic, keen sensibility, and love for building relationships, I strive to craft stories and empowering design solutions that last beyond the physical itself.
