I'm Ji Eun Sohn, an artist at heart, a designer by trade, and a graduate of New York's Parsons School of Design, where I received a degree in Communication Design in 2008. Soon after joining the industry, I realized I wasn't satisfied simply designing websites; I wanted to learn the Web from the inside out. Fortunately, I discovered that I was as passionate about programming as I was about creating eye-catching websites. A self-taught multi-linguist, I'm fluent in a wide array of Web languages, including CSS, HTML, Actionscript, Javascript, Php, and Mysql, among others.
Being both a designer and a developer allows me to bridge the divide that often exists between the artistic and technical sides of web design. Furthermore, it means that I can take a holistic approach to every project, building each aspect of a website from start to finish, top to bottom, front to back. There's nothing I enjoy more than combining my love of modern, minimalist aesthetics with my skills as a programmer.
Having worked in the industry for over 4 years now, both as a freelancer and for various agencies, I'm confident that I can turn any idea, no matter how simple or complex, into a website that is elegant in both form and function. Click here to get in touch.
What I Love
I love the minimalist aesthetic: It's amazing what can be done with only white space, a touch of color, and a bit of contrast. When I design, I keep it simple and clean, eliminating unnecessary objects and letting the typography and imagery speak for itself. I take the same approach to coding. It's great to see a well-coded website with a flashy animation; it's even better when I can find a simpler, more elegant way to do it. To me, being a great web developer means being equal parts creative and efficient. "Do more with less"--that's my philosophy.
