✰ CURRENTLY AN ASSOCIATE CREATIVE DIRECTOR @ R/GA ✰

Esther is a Korean-American Art Director / Designer from Sunny California, currently based in New York. She has a multi-disciplinary creative background from set design, digital to fine arts before she found herself in the world of advertising. She's a flexible creative and quick strategic problem solver and loves coming up with attention grabbing campaign ideas and experiences. She has been lucky enough to have her work covered by the New York Times, Hypebeast, Good Morning America, amongst other publications. In her off-hours, she enjoys cooking, ceramics and diving into new skincare products. She also has a cute little pup named Juno who often makes zoom appearances.  Esther is going to stop talking in third person now, but she very much looks forward to hearing from you.
