Hello, my name is Junho. I'm a product designer who hails from a lot of places, but that doesn't stop me from doing what I love to do: design.
I first discovered my passion of product design at Parsons School for Design in NYC. There I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Product Design. With a mindset that not many people have, I observe objects and my surroundings well. I'm a tinkerer and I have an understanding of how objects work on a mechanical, objectional, and human level. Thinking logically and optimistically comes natural to me. It allows me to help others with their work. I hope that these skills lead me to go beyond just helping on projects, but helping solve problems for the everyday person. It's a part of why I love doing what I do.

I helped other students with their technical difficulties when they were working on their projects in the wood shop. Watched other students work safely around the shop and keep the shop clean.
