About
Ren Zen: concrete poet, writer, visual artist
I’ve been a writer and artist since before AI. Multicultural, multilingual, mixed indigenous Pacific Islander here.
I’m an award-winning creative/art director and graphic designer and have worked with dozens of global brands, Fortune 500 companies, nonprofit orgs, a Tony Award-winning theatre, and a world-class museum.
Past clients include Microsoft, Universal Studios Japan, Marriott, the U.S. Departments of State, Justice, and Defense, Macy’s, Wachovia Bank (now Wells Fargo), and many more.
Kindness is my jam, and aloha is my spirit.
