Experience

1. Co-founder and Editor-in-chief

   Sight Unseen

   Apr 2009 — Present · NY, US

   I am the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the online design magazine Sight Unseen. I recruit, train, assign, and edit all contributors to the site and share editorial and social media curation with my co-founder. I co-produce and curate all of Sight Unseen\'s IRL exhibitions and shows, and, in 2022, creative directed Sight Unseen\'s first furniture line, made in collaboration with Bestcase. Over the past two decades, Sight Unseen has established itself as the ultimate source for discovering talents and trends in design and the visual arts. As an online magazine and gallery spotlighting independent designers, and an incubator for those designers via curated exhibitions, Sight Unseen has been, as journalist Aileen Kwun wrote in the New York Times in 2022, both “arbiters and archivists of contemporary design … acting as a divining rod for the social media generation, for whom design has not been a niche interest, but an integral part of a hyper-visual, increasingly self-broadcast lifestyle.”
