Hi there!

I believe every good connection starts with a "hi."

I'm a Bangkok-born creative, and my full name is Sarida Saepung... it's a bit long, so you can call me Mindy!

I'm a graphic designer and a graduate of Cal State Long Beach. My career has led me into social marketing design within the entertainment industry. It's been a fun ride—I've had the chance to see my work published across global campaigns and even visit (humble brag) some of the top streaming company headquarters.

I love brainstorming concepts for social, big campaign ideas, and event-driven moments—but I'm not limited to just that. I also enjoy creating smaller, playful projects like GIPHY stickers, clean and systematic icon sets, and taking on bigger challenges like branding and photo manipulation.

I'm currently based in Southern California, splitting my time between Los Angeles and Orange County. Outside of work, I'm a big foodie. One of my more unusual hobbies is experimental cooking—I like testing new recipes and using my design mindset to see if alternative ingredients can actually work.

I'm also a Yelp Elite and love exploring local cafes and restaurants, especially around the San Gabriel Valley and Garden Grove. My top three cuisines are Thai, Chinese, and Vietnamese—feel free to ask me for recommendations anytime.

When I have free time, I sometimes turn my food passion into content. I previously ran a TikTok account (@tableformin) where I posted food reviews, but I've paused it for now (partly due to caffeine overload... and funding). More recently, I've been learning illustration and started a small Etsy shop creating food-themed digital prints. I'd love to expand it into physical products someday, and maybe even sell at artist alleys.

I also love traveling and capturing moments from the places I visit. I try to travel at least once a year, and I collect prints, stickers, and receipts along the way for my scrapbook.
-> So far: 🇺🇸🇹🇭🇯🇵🇹🇼🇰🇷🇨🇳🇭🇰🇸🇬🇨🇦🇲🇽🇱🇰
-> Still on my list: Europe, Iceland, and Egypt (somehome I've never been to Europe!).

If I could choose another path, I'd probably be a wildlife photographer. For now, I just enjoy my daily dose of dog videos—and spending time with my 15-year-old pup whenever I visit him.

I also have a slight crane machine addiction and have been slowly getting better at pickleball.

That's a bit about me, nice to meet you ✌️

Mindy Saepung
