I grew up in Seoul and studied film at NYU Tisch before earning my MFA in directing and screenwriting from Columbia University. I’ve been mentoring students for 10 years, including international students, and recently helped a student get into their dream school (NYU)!
I don’t coach by pushing. I coach by slowing things down, creating a safe, judgment-free space, and helping you see what’s already there so you can trust yourself enough to begin.
If you’re feeling unsure but ready to start, I’d love to work together 😊.
