      Sept 2012 - Apr 2014
      Researcher

      As a researcher for the UWSA, my task was to collect data and feedback from student service group coordinators about the existing communication and problem-solving methods being used. I conducted the assessment by creating qualitative evaluation questions which were used during interviews with the coordinators. I had reviewed and analyzed the information collected during the interviews and compiled it into a final report that could be referenced upon in the future. I also acted as a temporary liaison between the coordinators and the vice president of student services in regards of improving intragroup/intergroup communication and problem-solving methods. The project enhanced the existing training of coordinators and created a platform where discussions could be held regarding the challenges they would face in their roles. Show less

      Music is a strong passion of mine. At the Korean School of Manitoba, I co-instructed a group of 20 children and adults to practice and perfect modern Korean dance choreography that would be presented at the annual festivals and year end events. I created an approach to teaching the students how to remember choreography based on my self-study of them.

      Co-founder

      As the creator, founder, and content creator of ELOVI.org, my mission is to provide winning guidance to youth and adults who want to adapt to an adult lifestyle in a relatable manner. I wish to show everyone that they do not need to face their challenges alone, that there are those who have gone through it and are willing to share their wisdom. Our belief is that growth begins by understanding and respecting those who shape our future and help them make the most of their talents. I offer one-on-one coaching services and online articles to guide those in need and provide a fresh perspective. I work with professionals and non-professionals who are motivated to get “unstuck” in their lives. Show less
