Hi! My name is Soowan An and I'm currently a graduating student at California Institute of the Arts studying to get a Bachelor's degree in lighting design.

​

I first started my work in lighting design when I was around 14-15 years old. My theater teacher was looking for a student to take over the position of lighting designer since the student who was acting lighting designer was graduating that same year. Without truly knowing what I was getting into, I volunteered because who doesn't want to play with bright colorful lights. Little did I know, I was fortunate enough to find something I would be passionate about to try and pursue as a career.

​

Since then, I have continued to work and learn in different areas of lighting design that exist within the world of live entertainment and I strive to just expand myself as a creative and designer!
