About me
Intro
Based in Seoul for the past 7 years, I work as an independent product designer with international clients across diverse industries, bringing projects from concept to production. I design with one rule: details matter. The difference between good design and great design lives in the small interactions most people never consciously notice, but always feel. Being fluent in French, English, and Korean helps me design across cultural contexts and work seamlessly with international teams.
