As a proud half Korean, half American, I lived as a nomadic world traveler, journeying to over 70 countries and immersing myself in diverse cultures and traditions. Though I never settled down permanently, I carried an appreciation for the incredible breadth of human life and experience.

​

When the world transformed in 2020, I returned to the U.S. and decided it was time to plant some roots and make a home. While my passion for travel still burned brightly, I yearned to infuse that wanderlust into domestic life.

​

That's when DOH UHM was born. I transform my most cherished travel memories into transportive fragrances, allowing me to revisit extraordinary destinations while inviting others to experience these places through scent. Candle-making has brought me great comfort and acceptance as I embrace this new chapter — a home filled with family and olfactory portals to my nomadic days.

​

I hope my candles can bring a touch of faraway places into your home, and spark your own sense of wonder and adventure.
