Glad to have you here!
I am an aspiring instructional designer with background in project management and adult education. I began my career with a global tech company based in South Korea, contributing to the project planning and management processes of multiple smartphone devices and mobile applications. In 2016, my own experience as a newcomer in Canada ignited my passion for helping people find their careers, prompting a career shift from product strategist to people strategist.
During my involvement in skill-based learning program design and facilitation in the non-profit sector, I witnessed the power of transformative learning and education, discovering the potential of educational technology. (And here I am in the UBC MET program!) My area of interest is in instructional design in social and higher education contexts, particularly focusing on promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. 
Currently, I live in the Pacific Time Zone in Metro Vancouver, BC. I have lived, worked, and traveled in 10 countries, and I speak three languages (English, Chinese, and Korean). I enjoy reading and writing with a nice cup of latte! If you have any questions or interesting ideas to discuss, feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn!
*As a bonus, here is my self-introduction video created for a course activity in MET. I hope you enjoy it.
