Learn more about Jini in our Q & A!
Where do you find inspiration?
My work is deeply inspired by Korean resilience and heavy metal. I love alternative culture and don't see enough Korean representation, so I like to think I'm a positive addition to that conversation.
What is your dream project?
My dream project would be creating album art for a band that I love.
What do you like to do outside of work?
Karaoke and food.
What are your thoughts about your city's creative scene for artists, designers, crafters, makers, and/or small businesses?
Denver is such a colorful, unique, eclectic place for artists. This place has all the potential and resources for us.
What is the best piece of advice you ever received?
Walk the walk. Don't talk the talk.
If you had a choice between two superpowers, being invisible or flying, which would you choose?
I'd rather fly than be invisible because I like the idea of being able to remove myself from any situation.
