My name is Pear. I’m Thai. I live in a small town close to Cleveland, OH with my husband, my dogs named Toffee, Tater, and Elsa. I’m a brand designer currently working full-time at Benchling. I specialize in brand design, design direction, and illustration. I’m a quiet person, an introvert, a processor, an over thinker, an anxious person, a planner, and I’m better expressing my thoughts via writing than speaking. I’m a big believer in remote and async work. I’m passionate about craft, balancing art and functionality, consistency, design exploration, inclusivity. I recharge by being in a quiet place, being with family and close friends, painting, walking my dogs, and eating good food.
