South Korea

I am originally from Wisconsin in the US and I have been living and working in South Korea since 2009.

I moved here to be an English instructor and while working at a high school in Seoul I studied for my master’s degree online at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). My MA is in global studies in education.
