She is both a singer and an educator, who makes a miracle that enables everyone to communicate through music. She has graduated from Department of Vocal music at Yonsei University and graduate school of Dongduk women's university. She also has obtained a diploma at Beniamino Gigli academia of Italy, continuing her occupation as a music teacher in Donggoo Girls' Commercial High School, adjunct professor in Anyang University and Dankook University. She is now taking an active part on various fields; a professional soprano and the head of domestic business in World Sharp, Soloist Ensemble, instructing a choir at Nazareth Youth Center and an adjutant teacher at Seoul Education Research Information Institute as well. The improvement in her students' attitude and the hope and pleasure from singing in union is what makes her being together with the students at all times. Her choir class will go on in order to help the isolated children in third world countries to rediscover themselves, and keep dreaming. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
