What have I been working on at  Samsung ?

Over the past couple of years at Samsung, I’ve had the opportunity to explore and work on a wide range of innovative, future-forward projects. Navigating ambiguity and uncertainty has pushed me to grow and refine my skills as a designer—balancing technological limitations with consumer needs while keeping business objectives in mind. This dynamic environment has allowed me to create innovative concepts grounded in research and aligned with company directions.
