What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values creativity and collaboration, offering opportunities for professional growth and impactful work.

I am a professional content creator with a strong academic background in International Relations. Currently, I serve as the project leader responsible for updating and improving the curriculum across multiple academies in South Korea. My key roles include project administration, researching, writing, and designing impactful content tailored for younger students learning English. I possess management skills and experience in training and leading a team, ensuring that our educational materials are both engaging and effective.

With a master's level qualification and developed qualitative research skills, I have a thorough understanding of social science theories and methodologies. My experience includes working as an editor and proofreader, where I provide high-quality content edits and feedback while collaborating closely with a team. I am passionate about creating educational content that fosters learning and development in students, and I thrive in environments that encourage teamwork and innovation.
