Following my passion for visual arts, I studied Interaction Design at the Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada. Most recently, I was the Product Designer for Neo Ardent, where I spear-headed the redesign of their digital consumer facing flagship salons.
Every project and amazing team members I have collaborated with has helped me grow as an individual and designer. I've learned to challenge my assumptions, work with ambiguity, and consider both user and business needs. For every project I remind myself, "this is where I can make a positive impact as a designer".
I love to create and design things. I love to cook, draw, design 3D art, and creating VFX. My latest ambition is to utilize LLMs and VR/AR designs.
After hours, you can find me studying Japanese, catching up on some Korean dramas, and taking photos of my cat 😺.
