Hello! My name is Usanee Wongphyat, but most people call me Minky—so feel free to do the same if it's easier for you! :) I'm originally from Bangkok, Thailand, and I now call sunny Los Angeles home.
My creative journey started early, thanks to my parents who enrolled me in art school alongside traditional schooling. I spent my childhood drawing, painting, and experimenting with color—an experience that sparked a lifelong love for design and continues to shape my work today.
Now with over a decade of experience as a multi-disciplinary designer, art director, and creative problem-solver, I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with some incredible brands including Honda, Acura, the LA Clippers, ampm, ARCO, Apartments.com, La-Z-Boy, TXU Energy, Dole, Dropbox, Pocky, and Southwest Airlines. Whether I’m concepting a digital campaign or refining cross-platform assets, I bring strategy, heart, and a collaborative mindset to every project. I’m known for my positive attitude, thoughtful ideas, and ability to blend big-picture thinking with hands-on execution.
Outside of work, I’m passionate about fitness and movement—I love basketball, cycling, lifting, running, ping pong, and just about anything active. You can also find me checking out museums, local art shows, and live music in my free time.
I’m always excited to meet new people and explore fresh opportunities. If you’re looking for creative support—or just want to connect—feel free to reach out. I’d love to hear from you! :)
