Personal Stuff

PAST

I studied fine arts and psychology in college. I pursued a degree in business ethics and leadership, as informed by theological values (justice, integrity, compassion, and love among others) for my masters education. Most recently, I built and ran a $4M+ grant program, for the state of Massachusetts, to empower small businesses with digital development.

PRESENT

A long and winding road has led me to prioritize excellent (not perfect) leadership, entrepreneurial fervor, and engaging design. Sometimes, I write down some of my thoughts publicly - thoughts like: why it’s so hard to rest and things I learned traveling with my mom.

FUTURE?

Sometimes it feels a little futile to have hope. But for as long as it still feels accessible to me, I am committed to doing everything in my power* to lift up others, heal the planet, inspire hope, and create wonder.

*powers include but are not limited to design and illustration, excellent choice in comedians, and acute self-awareness.

 

Design Stuff

Design Philosophy?

I always strive to create a wonderful, intuitive experience that ultimately points back to or creates space for more human connection. Really love this stuff.

Creative Communities?

I volunteer as a mentor with the Asian Creative Network as well as AIGA Boston working with mentees, focusing in the areas of graphic design, social media marketing, and content creation. I also love being a beta tester for Adobe Illustrator on iPad (Beta) and growing with its community of creators.
