Designer, NuSmile
At NuSmile, I led design initiatives across three companies — NuSmile, Avalon Biomed, and Dental HiTec — designing brands and systems across digital and print. I developed scalable design systems that reduced production and approval time by 2.5x, optimized workflows that increased asset output by 200%, and collaborated cross-functionally to align creative execution with sales and marketing goals. By replacing legacy print collateral with digital-first strategies, I helped save over $300K annually and doubled overall campaign effectiveness.
Jan 2024 — Jan 2025
Designer, Independent Practice
As an independent designer, I delivered 0 to 1 products, brands, and visual identity systems for four early-stage B2C clients across the U.S., Myanmar, Indonesia, and South Korea. I partnered directly with founders to define identity and creative direction, producing logos, moodboards, microsites, packaging, and marketing materials. My work led to repeat business and consistent client referrals.
Jan 2024 — Jan 2025
Co-Founder, Thrift Studio Co.
As Co-Founder and Creative Director of Thrift Studio Co., I led branding, marketing, and product design for an e-commerce brand. I managed a cross-functional team, launched quarterly campaigns, and built scalable creative systems. I also partnered with distributors to fulfill 1,500+ units across North America and scaled the brand to five-figure annual revenue.
