This website is currently being revamped as I work on long-term projects. New projects will be shared in the near future. In the meantime, feel free to email me for password access to project pages.

I was born in Korea and have been moving around since the age of 3, from Shenzhen to Hong Kong, London, and now Boston. I love making things: anything playful, sensory, and meaningful. I mainly work at the scale of furnitures, toys, wearable, and devices; sometimes extending to projects like pavilions, architectural interventions, and large-networked installations.
