Design leader and hands-on product designer with 10+ years of experience across product design, design systems, front-end development, and systems thinking. Currently a Product Design Lead at Rippling, where I shipped two 0 to 1 products in the Talent suite as part of an all-in-one workforce platform spanning HR, Finance, and IT. I lead design strategy while staying deeply hands-on, shipping production code, improving UI and copy directly in the codebase, building internal tools and plugins, and partnering closely with engineering. I use AI-powered workflows to move faster from concept to production, focusing less on static artifacts and more on shipping real customer impact. I have a strong track record of mentoring designers, influencing product roadmaps, running workshops, and documenting scalable systems and workflows. Previously at Atlassian on Confluence and Trello, and Oracle on HCM, ERP, and AI products. Masterβs degree from UC Berkeley. Fluent in English and Korean. Open to roles that combine leadership and high-impact IC work, especially in AI-enabled, systems-driven product teams.
