I am amped to (re)enter a field of adventure, connection, substance, and service. I have done everything from covering arts and entertainment before the digital advent to producing a short new media documentary about Filipino-Korean farming families in South Korea. As a Korean person born and raised in Massachusetts, I have searched long and hard for a direct way to advocate for my people through multimedia, character-forward reporting. I feel lucky to have found this path, and am especially excited to illuminate the universal importance of local happenings and the impact of global forces upon local communities.
