He remotely collaborated with German designers to work as a graphic designer on a project for the 'Eucerin Korea website' which was for landing in Korea. At that time, he realised how he works in distance environments efficiently.

Besides, he conceptualised creating a 'City Blog' with editors at GroupOn Korea. Additionally, he got a governmental research and development fund for creating a service that calls 'MOFFICE' myself. He worked to lead as a design leader and a senior designer for creating a website for Admission of KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute Science Technology).

Always he has faced the situation to present ideas to multiple teams and stakeholders so far and even now. Therefore he is accustomed to persuading the stakeholders and teams confidently with efficient compromisation. So he was able to be both a designer and a project leader so far. Finally, he got a prize as a startup founder from the Korean government.

Testimonial

"Kyungho currently works at FileThread as a UI/UX designer. He created an impact as soon as he joined! He revamped our company website to reflect our new product changes.

I need not divulge into his artistic capability; his works already serve as a testament to his amazing sense and creative design. I was truly impressed with his professionalism.

Kyungho instinctively translates requirements into UI design, manages expectations with detailed project roadmaps, and understands business needs to recommend better ideas. I could not have asked for a better business partner.

I look forward to continuing working with him on our product UI/UX and have no doubt he’ll be an asset to our organization."
