I'm a writer, editor, and cultural connector committed to diversity, inclusion and empowerment. I believe in the power of the arts and culture to inspire and improve our lives and our communities. The stories we tell through the varied modalities of our imaginations reveal and celebrate who we are, allowing for meaningful and transformative connections. 

 

I assist artists and arts companies across all disciplines in articulating vision and strategizing ways to realize projects. I've been privileged to work with amazing individual artists, small collectives, and national organizations for over twenty years. 

​

I was born in Korea and have lived across Canada, from Vancouver to Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal where I am currently based.

I studied at the University of Calgary (BA, English & Commerce) and the University of Toronto (MA, English). I have a Cultural Arts Management certificate from Waterloo University, the Cultural Careers Council of Ontario, and Genovese Vanderhoof & Associates' Income Managers Program. My own artistic metier is writing. I was longlisted for the 2024 CBC Short Story Prize, and was awarded the Quebec Writers Federation's Max Margles Prize for Fiction in 2022 for my novel in progress.
