Milken Institute / Non-Profit
The Milken Institute is a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank that helps people build meaningful lives, in which they can experience health and well-being, pursue effective education and gainful employment, and access the resources required to create ever-expanding opportunities for themselves and their broader communities.
The new grid logo is designed by Richard Mehl, my long-time mentor, and the task was to come up with variations of logo animation. When Michael Milken watched one of the logo animations, he mentioned how he found letter M and I within the grid in white lines. Therefore, the final rebranded Milken Institue logo includes a strong white stroke accent in letter M and I.

Intel Core 9th / Branding Studio
Coffee Lake is Intel's codename for the second 14 nm process node refinement following Broadwell, Skylake, and Kaby Lake.
The goal of this project was to come up with new Intel's Coffee Lake 9th generation sticker design. This 0.7”x0.7” sticker gets sealed on almost every window operated laptop. The sticker design exploration ranged from rectangular wafer textures to gradient organic worm shapes.
Although Intel ended up choosing a similar design that was used in previous generations, we at lease showed them other creative possibilities.

Internship @ George Tscherny Inc.
George Tscherny / Designer
mentorship / basics of graphic design
From 2016 May to 2017 May, I was fortunate to be an assistant to George Tscherny. George taught me unforgettable fundementals in graphic design.
Ranging from using X-Acto knife to prototyping through image transfer, George showed me how a designer should always pay attention to details.
Everytime I walked down to a stiff staircase to the basement of his office, I saw and felt his life long works of graphic design ranging from an envelope design to a wall size posters. The entire basement filled with cardboard boxes each labeled and neatly organized dating back to 1951. I saw the evidence of an artist being true to his expression throughout his life. From this experience, I always remind myself to continue being true to myself and my work.

Mario Salvadori was a structural engineer and professor of both civil engineering and architecture at Columbia University.
As he reached retirement age, Salvadori began volunteering to work with under-privileged minority students from inner-city New York public schools. Developing a hands-on method of teaching kids about the built environment, he was able to reach out to thousands of students and teachers, giving them an appreciation of the usefulness of mathematics and science.
In 1987 he founded the Salvadori Center, a non-profit organization in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, which aims to show students the relevance of math and science using the buildings, bridges, landmarks, and parks in their local communities.

Purely experimental typography project. The purpose of the project was to rebrand a music label company. However, during the process of style exploration for the Youtube music platform, COLORS, I asked my self this question: what if each Helvetica characters had its own sounds? I went bananas on this question.

Communication Design Project @ SVA / Labour - Ryan Dunn and Wyeth Hansen
WATT / Energy Installation
What if we can make this nature harming process shorter with available technology? What if we can produce electricity by ourselves? We create free energy every day: walking which is our kinetic energy. What if we can convert this free energy into usable electricity. New York City has the highest pedestrian traffic rate in the world. What if 8.5 million New Yorkers walk for this free energy? What if friends can send each other watts?
Watt is a system that absorbs pedestrians’ kinetic energy which converts into usable electricity. By installing piezoelectric sensors under floors or planes where they have in contact with pedestrians’ feet, electricity can be collected and be used for any objects that require electricity. Everything.
Piezoelectricity is the appearance of voltage across the sides of a crystal when one applies mechanical stress, such as pressure. When vibration or pressure is applied to the piezo sensor, voltage is created. This created voltage can be stored in Watt captivator or as known as the battery, then be sent to units through pre-existing channels. Batteries connected to Watt tiles can be installed into any structures ranging from an apartment unit to the most populated Grand Central Station lobby to even the outdoor sidewalks.
