Kyoto January 2025

Hi, I'm Tenzin!

I am a first-generation Tibetan-American raised in Queens, New York City. Growing up between cultures sparked my curiosity about people’s perspectives as well as how my community is impacted.

I am drawn to solving complex problems and social impact work where I can design with deep empathy, and balancing community needs with business goals. My background and interest in psychology, mindfulness, and social impact influences how I approach understanding others and solving problems.

Outside of design I love:

  • travel (my favorites so far are Lisbon, Thailand, and Japan!)

  • crafting (floral arrangements, legos, bedazzling, stationary)

  • to collect memories (journaling, editing videos, taking a billion photos)

  • animals (feeding the neighborhood cats churus, dog sitting)
