a digital product designer with 6+ years of professional experience.
I was born and raised in South Korea. As growing up, I had a unique perspective of the world with special global experiences; Studying in Korea and New York broaden the perspective of designers eyes, teaching design programs in different countries such as Jordan, Sri Lanka and Tunisia allowed me to have a borderless understanding of global market, and working as a lead designer in Amsterdam developed me as a refined professional product designer. In the past 5 years in Amsterdam, my speciality was focused on online product design especially for user experiences. I have developed a comprehensive design style with analysis of humans behavioral datas and mastered skills of design tools. I’ve actively approached to solve a big and small design problems and achieved success of 10+ projects. Other than design, before Covid, I loved traveling to explore different cultures and exotic traits. And these days I’m babysitting my beautiful daughter, I spent the last 2.5 years being a fully engaged mom. Now I eager to return to collaborate for any good design projects to pursue my career. Reach out and let's talk more :)
