I AM KOREAN AMERICAN

Own Words

I came to the US when I was 5 and lived for a year in Iowa, where I learned to speak English. I then spent most of my youth growing up in New Jersey, where I ate Italian ices and played football and basketball with friends. I went to Columbia for college and had a nice time studying history and film. After a brief stint in finance, I decided to start up a web design company with a friend. We’ve been at it for three years. We’ve had a lot of ups and downs, but we try our best to have a good time.

I really love living in Brooklyn. It’s a great place to walk the dog, ride around the park, and check out bars and restaurants. Only thing missing is a decent place to pick up ingredients to make Korean food. I end up driving to Sunset Park to pick up kimchi at a Chinese supermarket.
