PHOTOGRAPHER

I am a Korean American immigrant, RISD grad, and New Yorker. I’m a photographer with years of experience photographing and creative directing projects with small business owners, non-profits, corporate organizations, magazines, and designers. My personal photo essays center on creating and preserving memories and my observations on culture and intimate portraits of individuals.

I’m a mom, a bi-partisan dog and cat lover, a serious crafter, a paper flower artist, and book lover—grassroots everything.

K-POD

K-Pod, a production of KoreanAmericanStory.org, is a series dedicated to the stories of Korean Americans in arts and culture. Hosts Catherine Hong and Juliana Sohn talk to artists, writers, designers, directors, musicians, chefs, and other creatives about their work, their lives, and how they came to forge their careers.

That’s the official blurb! Catherine and I first met as teenagers at a summer program as high schoolers, then started K-Pod almost 30 years later. Catherine is an ace editor and writer. We both have extensive experience working with magazines. It is our pleasure to share these conversations with fellow Koreans about family, culture, and creative inspiration.
