As a kid, art helped me understand the world.
As a kid, art helped me understand the world.
When we came to the US, I keenly remember my parents worrying about whether our new country and culture would understand or even accept us. While my parents worked 6-7 nights/week, I was often holed away constantly experimenting, drawing, and recreating the things I saw outside our home and in the books we borrowed from our nail salon customers.

In college when I was struggling to keep up in my 600-person college lecture courses, I started writing out my science notes into the format of famous paintings (like Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night). This inspired my passion for bringing art and science into public places via crowdsourced sculptures, interactive data visualizations, and how we can cultivate meaningful moments of creativity + innovation.
