Hello, I’m Ryan Jeon. Growing up in Korea, Germany, Canada and the US, I appreciate diverse cultures, perspectives and lifestyles. 

As a Car Designer,  I love to evoke emotion, creating a feeling of a dynamic presence, one that makes you feel alive. Exploring proportion and volume, I mix imagination with design thinking. Beyond aesthetics, I create concepts that have purpose, a reason to exist, delivering real value to the user's life. Through design, I envision vehicles that are deeply connected to life, sensory and sexy.
