Hello I’m Yugo.

I’m a third-year student at UCLA, double majoring in Design Media Arts and Cognitive Science. My passion for art and design began in high school, where I loved creating exhibitions and posters for friends. My interest in visual culture, especially around how humans understand signs and symbols led me to explore philosophy and psychology texts eventually inspiring me to add Cognitive Science as a second major.

I’m particularly fascinated by the fusion of art, design, and technology—especially when they come together to create something extraordinary. Recently, I’ve been experimenting with creative coding in my personal projects, exploring the potential of programming in media art.
