PRATT INSTITUTE

I am a senior graphic design major student at Pratt, and I was and still am lucky to work as a teaching assistant of an amazing art director, graphic designer and a professor, Daisuke Endo at Pratt. I was born in Korea, studied in Massachusetts. I got into Pratt as an interior design major but I discovered my passion for communication design later so I changed my major to concentrate my study on graphic design in sophomore year. I love to read, to work and not sleep at night, and dogs. My area of interest is expanding from type design, branding to space design, environmental design, urban design.
