Sangjin is a highly accomplished professional holding a Bachelor’s of Art in Architecture from the University of California, Berkeley with honors. With notable academic achievements, Sangjin brings over 8 years of extensive architectural design experience to N-Gineers. His diverse portfolio includes involvement in various projects such as commercial tenant improvements in SFO, facade design, office daylighting, and electrical lighting consulting for Google in Sunnyvale, California. Sangjin has successfully contributed to high-end residential projects in California and South Korea, along with the completion of a Marriott Courtyard hotel project in Sejong, South Korea. Additionally, he possesses a background in Construction Management, overseeing projects ranging from high-end residential developments in Korea to multi-phased apartment complexes in Mactan, Cebu, Philippines. Sangjin’s design philosophy emphasizes constructability, showcasing a meticulous attention to detail.

In his current role as an Architectural Energy Modeler, he specializes in energy modeling, daylighting, and electric lighting simulations. Sangjin conducts building energy simulations across all design phases, using advanced modeling tools to evaluate annual performance and guide sustainable design decisions. He develops early parametric studies to compare design options and identify energy‑saving strategies, analyzes energy source integration and utility rate structures, and performs life‑cycle cost assessments to determine long‑term value. By interpreting simulation results and coordinating with project teams, he helps shape efficient, integrated design solutions.

Sangjin’s professional interests align with his personal and academic passions, focusing on architectural design responses to the complexity of community-level contexts. He is committed to creating quality spaces and environments for human activities, considering not only physical conditions such as natural resources and daylight but also accounting for cultural shifts and humanitarian design impacts.
