JOHN YOHAN JOHN

STRATEGIC DESIGN AND FACILITATION

hello again!

My name is John. I am a Strategic Designer based in New York City.

I am currently on a journey to use design to help communities.

Having grown up in multiple cultures across three different countries, making sense of communities and their cultural dynamics has been in equal parts a fascination and a way of better understanding myself.

I am currently pursuing my MS at Parsons in Strategic Design and Management.

Listening to people's stories, exploring new ideas, encountering new cultures and allowing my self to grow in new places is what activates me.
