About

Following my dreams to become a teacher, after graduating Smith College with a double major in Education and American Studies (with a focus on education), I taught two years in public school education before I was granted a Fulbright Scholarship to teach in rural South Korea. I was then selected among active Fulbright grantees to work at the UNESCO-Headquarter on international education policy at the Office of the Director General's Office to coordinate schools around the world to work towards the Millennial Development Goals and also to bring about technologies in schools. This lead to studying international public policy at Columbia University's School of International & Public Affairs where I concentrated in Social Policy and Management (with a focus on education). Since then, I've worked in various international/domestic education consulting/policy related positions. Today I work to advise enterprise corporations crafting a holistic learning ecosystem on ethics and compliance so that companies may enhance corporate culture. On the side, I coach students on developing and building their identities through reflective meditative exercises and building soft and academic skills through constructive debate and individual coaching sessions.
