Hi there! Salam kenal!‍

Indonesian for "Pleasure to meet you!"
Pronounced "sah-lahm kuh-nahl!"

I'm Stephan — a thinker, creator, and UX designer from Indonesia, currently based in the greater Seattle area! I graduated from the University of Washington Bothell with a BA in Interactive Media Design, a super competitive, hands-on, cohort-style program that they no longer offer.

Work aside, I have a deep-rooted craze for music, architecture, linguistics, dreams, space, aviation, and motorsports. In my free time, I play instruments, build custom mechanical keyboards, play flight/space/racing simulators, play racket sports, speedcube, draw, and I'm also a student pilot!

RESUME

My life has been punctuated by moments of profound fascination with the emotions evoked by experiences, whether wandering through enchanting Minecraft architecture or being immersed in the magic of Disney rides.

These instances underscore the untapped potential of emotions, and I firmly believe that we should explore their power in other contexts of interaction.
