I majored in Korean language and literature at Hanyang University and completed my M.A. coursework at Hanyang Graduate school majoring in Korean Modern Literature. I have worked in the social service/non-profit field for over 15 years and I have worked as a civil servant. In addition, I taught students Korean at Democracy Prep High School and Manhattan Korean School in NYC. I have been teaching Korean for a wide range of skill levels to all ages for many years, and am currently working at the Korean Society for advanced reading and discussion classes and advanced writing classes. I would like to meet diverse students and share my knowledge with them.

I like meeting new people and having valuable conversations with them. Along with making human connections, I like to learn new things. In my free time, I enjoy attending art events in NYC. I also keep myself updated with current news through various online sources.
