I aim to help people through empathy-driven, inclusive, and valuable research solutions.

Right now, I am a Junior at the University of Washington pursuing a career in UX research field enjoying my time learning, exploring, and honing in on my craft.

I was born and raised in Busan, Korea, and moved to Seattle for Junior High through college.
