I have always been curious about the way people share knowledge and interact with the world around them. During the course of my undergraduate studies, I polished my French, dabbled in journalism, and took some time off to teach English at a small university in South Korea before eventually earning my undergraduate degree in Photography & Imaging and East Asian Studies at New York University. To me, my academic intentions were clear: I wanted to explore the ways people communicate with one another, convey information, and how they inhabit their world. So quite naturally, I am fascinated by new discoveries and technologies and their implications and impact on our cultural and social structures, and I look forward to exploring this in the Making Culture Lab at Simon Fraser University.
