Art has empowered me, and taught me the essential key to understanding humanity in the most gentle and caring way than any other subjects did for me. From a math major in college, I switched to visual arts in my junior year for this love of art. I am a graduate of California State University Fullerton, with BA in Visual Arts, Teaching Concentration, Crafts Emphasis. I taught Ceramics in Korean/English Dual Immersion at Berendo Middle School in LAUSD and I have been teaching Ceramics, Jewelry, and Mosaic Arts in Ladera Vista Jr. High School of the Arts since 2015. With my students at Ladera Vista Junior of the Arts, I hope to teach my students how see the world through the arts as well as to express their understandings of the world through art-making.
