Panukarn Yongyueangphan
Visual Merchandiser
San Francisco, CA, USAI understand that design is not all about art or operating programs, but about solving clients' problems. It is a means of visual communication, and looks for the most logical, simple, beautiful and clean way to do that. My knowledge and experience allow me to take an alternative approach to tackling problems -- one that’s sensible and socially and responsible.
