I came to America from South Korea in 1980 when I was in high school, and I am fluent in Korean in reading, speaking and writing. I excelled in high school. I took calculus and honors physics, and made into the Honors Society in my senior year and graduated in the 9th of the class of over 300 students. I also received the Overall Art Achievement Award and Excellence in Photography so I was invited to the awards ceremony where I had a presentation of my artwork to the audience of students and family.
I studied Fine Arts and Graphic Design at the University of Buffalo. Worked for the next 20 years in the graphic design industry as an art director. I am an expert in the graphic design related applications such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, QuarkXpress and many others along with some web design basics.
I have a MA in the Media Studies from the New School where I studied Post Modern Theory, Culture, Media History and Ethics, Feminism, Multi-media and other various subject matters.
I also have an extensive knowledge of metaphysics and the new thought/the science of mind, and am an active practitioner of energy medicines; I'm a certified BodyTalk practitioner, Reiki Master Teacher and certified yoga instructor. I teach about energy and energy medicine techniques, yoga and meditation individually and also in small and large groups.
