Hi, I’m Hosoo!
I am a junior at the University of Southern California majoring in Design and minoring in Communications. My pronouns are he, him, and his.
I discovered product design through CreateSC 2020, USC's annual product design competition when my team won first place. Since then, I have been part of various projects, like a mobile Korean Learning app I designed from scratch; digital experiences I created at a design agency, and a design system I built and maintained for a fintech company.
How I design…
Advocate for Users
I advocate for the users and their needs in creating a solution. I take pride in gaining a deep understanding of users and designing products that provides them their needs.
Fail-fast and Learn-faster
I have a fail-fast and learn-faster mentality when I design. I try to identify my failures and quickly iterate to optimize the solution.
Beautiful Experiences
I take pride in creating beautiful experience through my designs. My greatest strength is my attention to detail, and I always try to create seamless and visually pleasing experiences for the users.
Outside of Design
I enjoy going to nature. I love to get out on a hike and decompress from the business of daily life. This particular photo was taken at Big Sur!
I am a huge dog person. I fostered 4 dogs - Flossy, Qtip, Mozzy, and Baily - over the past summer. I love teaching tricks, walking, and cuddling with my furry friends!
After a long day of school and work, I enjoy cooking a warm meal for dinner. Recently, I have been cooking Korean food!
