About me

I always call myself the ‘Citizen of the World’.

I was born in South Korea than quickly moved to China when I was four and lived in Shen Zhen for about 10 years. While I was living there I discover I had dyslexia and heard UK has the best support in the world for people like myself. Since then I lived here for over 13 years and received British Passport and fall in love with the world design. Funny thing is most of my family lives in America therefore we always have massive discussion of where we should meet for upcoming holiday.

Maybe because I have such a wide range of cultural background, I’m curious, love to listen to others and learn new things. My biggest passion as a designer is to solve issues around the world such as hunger, poverty, and public health. During my free time I enjoy cooking and camping.
