Charis Kuo
Hi I’m Charis :) A Visual Communication Design student based in Seattle. Growing up in international school environments and multicultural communities shaped how I think about communication and audience. Being surrounded by people from different backgrounds taught me to value accessibility and thoughtfulness in the way ideas are shared. My faith is also an important part of how I approach design. I see creativity as a gift, and I care about using my skills to serve others and create work that feels honest and meaningful rather than purely aesthetic. Whether I’m designing a poster, digital graphic, or visual system, my goal is to create work that communicates clearly, feels welcoming, and reflects care for the people it’s meant for.
