I didn't start out as an artist. I came from investment banking and private equity — a world built on numbers, not narrative. At some point I walked away from it to make things instead of model them, and I haven't looked back.

I'm Korean American and BIPOC, a lot of my work carries that lens directly — CHIE, the character at the center of my ComplexCon exhibition, is an Asian American girl fighting to become the first woman in the NBA. Representation isn't a side theme for me; it's often the reason the idea exists in the first place.

Along the way I've collaborated with Adidas, Gucci, and LEGO, and I’ve donated a portion of my sales to nonprofits doing work I believe in.

I want to work with visionaries who want an idea nobody's seen before — not a variation on something that already exists — that's the work I'm here to make.
