Work Experience  


A Korean artist with experience in graphic design, currently working across Los Angeles and Korea. Specializing in UI/UX design, motion graphics, and broader graphic design, his expertise stems from a blend of formal education and self-directed studies. Influenced by the world of film and video games from an early age, he was particularly inspired upon seeing a Korean name among UI artists in credits, fueling his ambition to create art that transcends boundaries. This inspiration led him to further his education in America, significantly shaping his professional trajectory. Today, he leverages these experiences to create compelling design solutions that resonate with diverse audiences.
