Photographer
My role is__________ and I work out of the ______ studio.
Photographer, Hong Kong Studio
When I was 5, I was pretty sure I’d be a __ when I grew up.
Artist/ painter. I enjoyed going to art classes at that age or simply messing around with paint, I guess.
The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is:
No one and nothing is perfect. Just try to do the best you can to your own assessment, you can never impress everyone.
What’s the biggest misconception people have about your position?
I'm not sure what misconception people may have about my position...
But as a photographer, people tend to think I know a lot about cameras; truth is, I never really pay attention to the specs of cameras. I always believe that it is the creativity in our minds that matters, not the equipment.
What fashion trend should make a comeback?
Not necessarily to make a comeback, but it would be interesting to see if the Bape shark full zip hoodie could regain popularity. For personal nostalgia, I thought it was one of the coolest things when I was a teenager, but it is way too bazaar to wear if it isn't popular or “trendy”.
What fictional place would you most like to visit?
The kingdom of Wakanda seems like an attractive place to visit, but probably during a chilly night because I don't enjoy the heat.
What is your favorite part of your job and how does it impact the Straub mission of making Damn Good Content?
Collaborating with one another is probably my favorite part of working at Straub. Since the team in Hong Kong is relatively small, the collaboration is easy and quite strong. We try to problem solve everything together efficiently with quality to create Damn Good Content.
Anything else everyone should know about you?
I enjoy traveling and I like to drink coffee. Visiting various cafes is a must for me whenever I travel. I could drink coffee during anytime of the day since I don't think caffeine actually affects my sleep or whether it actually keeps me awake...
My espresso machine along with my coffee subscriptions are definitely my best purchases of this year!
