I’m not your traditional designer.

It took me awhile to embrace imposter syndrome with my atypical background; I still struggle. I didn’t graduate with a fine arts or graphic design degree; instead, I hold a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD). After a decade in pharma, I decided to pursue a path that would allow me to blend creativity and problem-solving with far-reaching impact through the medium of technology, and I haven’t looked back. (maybe a few times…)

Through the support of the many mentors who guided me along this journey, determination and conviction to put some good out into the world, I have been able to overcome challenges and grow to where I am today. I am passionate about doing the right thing for people, and am unafraid to question the status quo when necessary. I acknowledge that I still have a lot to learn, and I genuinely welcome constructive feedback that will help me and my craft continue to improve.

More about me:

I am Korean-American and love my Korean heritage! Learning to embrace my background and experiences that help me bring a perspective that is uniquely me.

Hobbies (when I have time):

  • reading thrillers, rom-coms, fiction, non-fiction - what’s your rec?

  • watching movies, TV that help with escapism

  • exploring new towns, cafes, and indie book stores

  • working out to keep up with the fam

  • volunteering to serve the underprivileged in South Korea

My values

Just a few of the values I try to live by in all spheres of my life.

Integrity

I aim for integrity in all my relationships. Upholding this is essential, as it fosters trust, and I strive to earn that trust through unwavering honesty and by doing what is genuinely best for those I care about, including my team and customers.

Humility

I’m not perfect. When it comes to creating innovative designs for humans and the collaborative team effort it takes to reach the finish line successfully, it’s an ongoing journey for me to consciously check my ego at the door and trust both the customer and my team, giving grace and focusing on positive intent.

Empathy

It is essential for me to genuinely understand various perspectives and actively broaden my worldview, as this process helps me to challenge my own biases and presumptions, ultimately leading to richer and more thoughtful creations.
