I love cooking and I believes that a good design should bring the same level of delight as tasting a delicious dish can do. It's about going beyond meeting functional needs to leave a lasting positive impression on the audience.

Studying abroad has reshaped my approach to learning, allowing me to both learn and unlearn. Through this journey, I've come to understand that "home" isn't confined to a single place; rather, it's embodied by the people and the connection.

In Spring 2022, diving into Alo rooms with my team and Professor McLean Donnelly was the highlight of my UX design journey. We immersed ourselves in the world of user experience, brainstorming ideas for a smart yoga experience. For ten weeks, we fine-tuned Alo rooms until it felt perfect. In November 2023, our creation won the Junior Prize "Best of the Best" Red Dot Award in Berlin.

Beyond the thrill of winning, it's the love, pride, and passion we poured into Alo rooms that will stay with me forever. Being a designer is incredibly fulfilling because it's not just about projects; it was a journey filled with heart and soul, and that's what makes being a designer so incredibly fulfilling.
