NOW MY STORY…
I was destined to be a Creative Director
This was obvious from age 4 when I was plucked from my birth country of Korea and dropped in the super cool UK. With Korean as my first language, I couldn’t speak any English to socialize with fellow preschoolers and teachers but art was universal. And quickly learned that a smile face drawing could break through language barriers while conceptually communicating my thoughts. I also excelled at coloring though wasn’t afraid to color outside the lines when creativity struck. I was meant to be a creative! And visual storytelling was always my calling!
Trading in crayons for a Macbook and tablet, I was awarded an academic scholarship at the University of Miami, a private research institution (Go Canes!), and have since been working hard to refine and elevate Creative Direction skillsets pushing cut-through ideas and building synergy with collaborators, while driving progress in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. I also completed further education at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, and UCLA. Additionally, I enjoy all manner of visual expressions – photography, interior design, and slaying the fashion game. You’ll also find me shredding the mountains on my beloved board when there’s a good dump of powder.
