Celebrating Asian-American & Asian Pacific Islander Heritage month with 1stdibs
Posted on 06 May 2022
I am thrilled to be included as one of the Asian American creators on 1stdibs's feature celebrating Asian-American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
The Month of May has become pretty significant for me this year because I just returned from my annual visit to see my parents in Korea, and it is also the month of Parents' day in Korea (May 8th) as well as Mother's day in the USA. Fortunately I was able to celebrate it although a few days early in person with my parents before returning to New York which I am very grateful for.
For those that don't know me well, I was born in Seoul, Korea and grew up in Singapore from ages 6-18. I moved to the United States to attend Syracuse University and have stayed in the state of New York making New York City my place of work and home.
Happy Mother's day to all Mothers and Mothers-to-be this weekend! Wishing all of you great quality time and experiences this weekend with your loved ones.
Here is a photo of me and my mom during a gallery visit in Seoul, Korea.
