Creative Director building visual systems, AI workflows, and interactive experiences across brand, product, and emerging technology.
👋 Hi, I’m Minjin Kang, a Creative Director and Creative AI Systems Leader working across brand, product, emerging technology, and interactive experiences.
At Microsoft, I help move generative AI from experimentation into real creative production by shaping AI native tools, workflows, and brand systems that help teams move faster without lowering the creative bar.
I’ve worked with Apple, Adobe, Airbnb, and NVIDIA, and led 0 to 1 product initiatives for Space Runners across AI tools, spatial interfaces, and interactive commerce environments.
My work combines creative direction, systems design, and hands on prototyping to help teams turn generative AI into scalable creative workflows.
