Hi, I'm Sungjoon • Steve

I enjoy designing thoughtful products, developing teams to be at their best, and investing in technologies that can make life simple.  

Sungjoon Steve Won has spent 14+ years in the industry, from large corporations to growing start-ups and enabling design from different seats at the table (as a designer, as a PM, as an exec). His work has received awards from Good Design, iF Design, & IBM and has been shown at international venues such as ACM CHI & London Design Biennale. He's authored a book in Korea previously.
