My name is Won Jimin (원지민). My surname Won (원), holds the meaning of ‘the best’ in Korean but it also means ‘circle’. Due to this small coincidence, I started to like the word ‘circle’ from when I was a kid, both in the shape and its connotations. Circles exist everywhere in our everyday life. From the circular motions of bicycle wheels to tree rings, clock, full moon, life buoy, and spinning pinwheel on Mac. Circles, which are made of continuous lines also are used as symbols of totality, wholeness, and timelessness.
I am a circle-like person who continuously challenges myself in multiple fields and tries to develop as a distinguished designer in various spheres.
Since childhood, I had the opportunity to interact with people from diverse backgrounds, allowing me to expand my cultural experience and global perspective. I believe that this unique experience in my life is reflected in my design works and that they resemble the direction of creativity and diversity L'Oréal Singapore provides and pursues. During my studies at LASALLE College of the Arts as a BA(Hons) Design Communication major, I have experienced and acquired the related skills in multiple areas of visual communication and also attained proficiency in utilizing different Adobe Creative suites (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, After Effects). I may not have a long working experience at a company yet, however, I have worked as a creative intern at Shopee Brand & Growth Marketing team and as a freelance graphic designer for more than three years. I am familiar with creating design content based on the requested briefs for branding needs and guidelines. From my work experiences, I additionally learned to:
- conceptualize and design campaigns, content or advertisements
- develop design briefs by gathering information and creating solutions
- understand how creative marketing materials can support the business objective
- effectively communicate with the clients and be punctual
I would be delighted to have an opportunity to personally interview with you. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience!
