A little more about me

Clinical Care in Korea

As a medical intern

During my year-long rotating internship at Asan Medical Center, Korea’s largest hospital, I was responsible for assessing inpatients under supervision and responding to ward calls. I evaluated patients at the bedside and communicated key findings to the team. I also developed proficiency in arterial blood gas sampling, Foley catheterization, nasogastric tube placement, and paracentesis. This experience strengthened my ability to prioritize clinical needs and contribute reliably to the ward team.

Care across languages

In outpatient practice in Seoul, I cared for international patients in Korean, English, and Chinese. I adapted questions and explanations to each person’s understanding, helping patients make sense of treatment options and follow-up plans.

Working with people

Freelance production assistant

Keeping the team in sync

Growing up in a family involved in K-pop and television production, I became interested in the work behind the stage. As a freelance production assistant on music and audition programs, I helped coordinate performers and backstage work as plans changed. Working across different crews taught me to share updates clearly and pay attention to what others needed.

Mathematics tutoring · Volunteer teaching

Helping others understand

For seven years, I taught mathematics to middle and high school students. I also volunteered to teach mathematics at community centers and libraries. I learned to identify what each student found difficult and adapt my explanations accordingly. I now use the same approach with patients, tailoring medical explanations to their level of understanding and specific concerns.

Learning, then sharing

I completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training course in Bali, learning alongside classmates from around the world. Practicing and teaching in English gave me another way to connect with people.
