Summary
Shiny Lee is a Creative Director with 12 years of cross-cultural creative experience, blending Taipei roots, Tokyo upbringing, and New York training (MFA, Parsons) to produce award-winning campaigns for brands like Uber Eats and 7-Eleven. At Whatever she rose from Associate Creative Director to lead creative strategy and execution, after earlier design roles at PARTY (NY/Taipei) and an internship at Rhizomatiks. She co-founded the Taiwan Emoji Project, translating Taiwanese identity into a universal visual language, signaling a practice that merges cultural advocacy with commercial storytelling.
