Hello!
My name is Na Eun (now-in)
Growing up, I was always curious about how and why things work, whether it was cultures, objects, and ideas. My curiosity led me to making and I got into design as a way to combine the practical and creative.
As a designer, I want to build sustainable opportunities for people and communities through objects, systems, and interactions. I am passionate about research as it allows me to connect to people and have a deep understanding of people’s values; what makes them feel secure, free, and thrive.
I design to support people's values and create meaningful, positive experiences that sparks joy in people’s lives.

Bites of my life:
= JOY
