BA, MS, PhD, Chemical Technology, Seoul National University
MBA, The University of Texas at Austin (Information Management)
Personal Trajectory:
My grandfather said, "Whatever you do, do it for ten years."
So I studied chemistry in the university for ten years. Then my father said,
"Running one's own business is better than anything else." So I spent the next ten years in the business sector and became a founding member of an online B2B marketplace. Then I figured that most of those whom I admire were either a designer or closely related with design. So I realized that I needed another transition, which resulted in joining Design Continuum.
