I was born in Seoul, Korea, (1982) and grew up in the United States of America. As a child I grew up making paper models and taking apart electronics to see how they worked.

As a young adult I was interested in studying computer science but found it was too rigid for me. I ended up recieving my BFA in photography from The School of the Art Institute of Chiago in 2005.

After a few years of working in the photography industry and seeing it transition from analog to digital, I recieved my MFA in New Media/Art & Technology Studies at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2009.

I am currently assistant professor at Clarkson University where I teach computer animation. I have exhibited internationally as well as within the United States. Selected exhibitions include: Waymaker Gallery, Yorktown, New Calodon; Mio Photo, Osaka, Japan; South Side Community Art Center, Chicago; The Gene Siskel Film Center, Chicago; Doubner Space, Prague, Czech Republic; Sacramento University, Sacramento, California;
