Background


My first and most infamous work is a collage created at age four, assembled and glued secretly onto the white wall behind my grandma’s sofa. It was a messy frenzy of creativity that my family didn’t quite appreciate at the time; it was taken down two weeks later upon discovery. Since then, I’ve channeled that creativity in better ways, studying architecture at UCLA and then interaction design at the School of Visual Arts in New York.

I’m now designing for platforms at Stripe. I also run Day One Design Club, a community for startup designers. Other things that bring me joy: ballroom dancing, playing catch with my pup Mickey, and re-making my favorite Vietnamese recipes at home.
