Zack Nguyen “Eyes See Me” (2024) Bio: Designer, Artist, Lifelong Curious Kindergartener In my imaginary world, I dream of becoming an art + design wizard. It excites me—the idea of bringing joy and connecting to others through meaningful aesthetic experiences. By employing artistic practices and psychological observation, I strive to responsibly design works that matter to the community. I studied Arts, Technology, and Emerging Communication, with a concentration in Design and Production, and a minor in Psychology. With my interest in developing future non-profit organizations and small businesses, I completed an International Honors Certificate in Global Entrepreneurship from the University of California, Los Angeles in Summer 2018. I actively advocate for the protection of children’s rights, education equity, mental health, and LGBTQ+ rights. I am also currently an active member of the Guardian Circle of UNICEF and a loyal contributor to MD Anderson Cancer Center.
