I'm Jinhee, A visual UX designer living in Wellington.
Born and raised in South Korea, I moved to New Zealand in 2011 and found my second home. For the last ten+ years, I have worked with a few places to create various mediums that help their business grow as a designer and a freelancer.
My life has taught me resilience, goal orientation, and lifelong learning — I come from a different culture, I found it interesting how people’s backgrounds, motivations, and thoughts make them behave a certain way.
As a designer, I aim to deliver meaningful work that matters to the real world. I enjoy photography, travel, writing, dog walking, and hiking in my spare time. Recently, I finished a Master of User Experience Design at Victoria University in Wellington to expand my design skill.
