Raised in Burnaby, I am excited for the opportunity to run for school board trustee and engage with our community.
I grew up in Burnaby with all the privileges of an immigrant middle-class Korean-Canadian boy. After college, I tried a few different careers in my twenties before finding my home at UBC. Like some during the pandemic, I had the opportunity to slow down and re-prioritize my life. I didn’t have a plan, but it resulted in joining the Canadian Armed Forces Reserves, lurking on /r antiwork, and volunteering in my community. The best part of this new balance has been the time and space to hang out with my wife and daughter.
