Bio

Coming from South Korea, my journey began as a marine engineer navigating the vast oceans. It evolved through roles as a developer and entrepreneur, ultimately leading me to become a designer. This comprehensive voyage allowed me to experience diverse people, cultures, and technologies, and understand their impact on individuals. With this background, I am passionate about creating solutions that are creative, practical, and impactful for people living in the real world.

In my free time, I enjoy sports as a junior soccer referee and a runner. I also love exploring various genres of music, watching movies, experimenting with new recipes, and attending live performances. Beyond these, I’m always eager to experience new things, as everything becomes a source of inspiration.

I’m excited to be part of the Berkeley MDes community and look forward to connecting with others who share my passion for innovative design. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to connect!
