HI, I'M KIM
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with 3+ years of experience in visual branding, marketing, and human-centered design, from AI-powered products to live event campaigns. I graduated from the University of California- Davis, where I found the perfect fusion of my interests: Cognitive Science teaches me how people think and behave, while Design shows me how to turn those insights into meaningful experiences. Together, they form the foundation of how I approach problem-solving, storytelling, and strategy.
AN INTERVIEW WITH KIM
So, why design?
Design has always been the way I make sense of the world. I started teaching myself motion design at 13 because I loved bringing ideas to life, and over time that curiosity grew into UX and mixed media, where I discovered the impact thoughtful design can have on people's everyday experiences.
What inspires you?
I’m inspired by the talented people I’ve worked with who constantly challenge me to think bigger and push my craft further. I’m always chasing my next spark of inspiration, whether that's actively engaging with the design community or exploring AI tools to accelerate ideation.
How do you work?
I enjoy wearing multiple hats and seeing projects from concept to delivery. I love connecting people, technology, and storytelling— and that's the perspective I bring to every project, whether I'm designing a product, launching a campaign, or supporting a live event.
Why should I work with you?
I’m highly adaptable, collaborative, and enjoy serving as a bridge between different teams, stakeholders, and consumers.
