Rooted in my expertise in spatial design, I have expanded my career as
a brand and experience designer inShinsegae Retail & Hospitality Inc. Korea,building a robust six-year journey in the retail and hospitality industries across Korea and the United States. By steering multifaceted projects across wineries, grocery outlets, and online services,I have cultivated a flexible mindset and an innovative perspective through collaborative engagements with diverse clients and experts.
This year, I embarked on a new chapter at Carnegie Mellon Universityto pursue a Master's in Design for Interactions. Through this program,
I aim to enhance my capabilities and perspectives as a design strategist,
bridging both the digital and physical realms.
