Dongmin Ham · HAM MEDIA

27 years in the field,
now shaping how people and AI work together.

I divide work once carried by one person between people and AI,
while keeping the final decision human.

At Starbucks Korea and Della Casa, I learned how people, spaces, and operations work.
Today, I connect that experience to video, documents, teaching, and real work.

AI supports the work.
People carry the judgment and responsibility.
Dongmin Ham, Ham PD

27 Years in the Field

I learned how people and places move

At Starbucks Korea I learned stores, training, and organizations. At Della Casa I learned space, guests, and the reality of running a business.

Foundation — people, operations, education, customer experience

Work I Have Done

I show it through real outputs, not claims

Store operations, training, a restaurant, audio and video, websites and content — I judge from work I have actually done.

Evidence — video, documents, websites, teaching

View Project Evidence

What I Do Now

I organize work so people and AI can work together

I define who does what, where work pauses, who reviews it, and which decisions stay human.

Structure — people set direction; AI supports execution

The Person Behind HAM MEDIA

Not scattered roles. One direction.

At Starbucks Korea I learned people, brands, and education. At Della Casa I learned space, guests, and the reality of running a business. My roles changed, but the direction did not: understand people, design better experiences, and make invisible value visible.

Audio, cameras, fountain pens, and cars are not decorations outside my résumé. They are years spent touching, comparing, failing, and building my own standards.

Today, I make that experience and judgment readable by AI, then connect it to video, documents, teaching, and workflows where people and AI can work together.

In One Sentence

I turn field-tested operations into ways for people and AI to work together.

What I Have Connected

How 27 years of experience shape the work I do now

I Understand Operations
From store operations to district-level management, I worked close to the field and helped manage the flow of 10 to 15 stores. That background helps me understand what is happening behind the visible result.
I Know How to Explain
I have experience with coffee seminars, onboarding, role-based training, store manager training, support-center training, and instructor development.
I Structure Documents for Persuasion
I organize proposals, presentations, portfolio copy, and business introductions so the reader can understand the point, the context, and the reason to trust it.
I Turn Stories into Content
HAM MEDIA works across YouTube planning, filming, editing, publishing, Shorts repurposing, and content direction.
I Design How People and AI Work Together
I define ownership, stopping points, review, and the decisions that stay human so real work can run repeatedly.
I Teach People to Try It Themselves
For people new to AI, I provide practical exercises. For solo experts and freelancers, I help organize their experience into a form that can be shown online.

Live website portfolio · 3 worlds

Built by one studio. Designed as three different worlds.

We start with an interview, extract the character of the subject, and build a visual system instead of reskinning the same template. Open the three finished websites and see the difference.

How we build We turn what emerges from Ham PD's interviews into a DESIGN.md, then give each world its own visual system.

Who I work best with

Institutions & public programs

So even learners in their 50s–60s who are new to AI can follow through to the end, I design attitude and a hands-on flow first, before features.

Small businesses & solo founders

I help you share the work that's heavy to carry alone — promotion copy, customer replies, content planning — with AI, while the final call stays with you.

Experts & companies

I organize your expertise and experience into materials AI can use, so content, promotion, replies, and action plans get produced again and again.
