I am a ceramic designer & artist originally from Seoul, Korea who now I live and work based in Montreal, Canada. Before changing my career to ceramist, I have worked in Tv station making documentary films.

I like traveling by living at a place, observing human's life through food, and it's culture. Cooking food from all over the world and sharing it make me really happy. I have travel extensively in south east Asia and some part of Europe in my 20’s. After some intensive traveling, I wanted to travel a place by living at a place in a more slow phase, getting engaged with local community, observing human's life through language, food, and it's culture in deeper sense. This led me to places like Melbourne in Australia and now to Montreal, the french part of Canada.
