EXPERIENCE
● Mirabaud Group | APR 2019 - JUN 2020: Investment Advisor - Relationship Manager
I'm a senior investment professional at Shorooq Partners helping connect Korea with MENA (Middle
East & North Africa). I enjoy meeting with founders across all sectors but am especially intrigued by
those not only reimagining technology, but also outdated business models. I'm dedicated to backing
mission-driven startups with the technology and the team to disrupt the fields they are in.
My alma mater is Yale University where I double majored in Economics & History of Art and founded
the Yale Blockchain Initiative in conjunction with the Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking at Yale.
Previously, I served in the Republic of Korean Army's counterterrorism unit operating in the Seoul
Metropolitan area.
When I'm not working, I like to go to the gym, visit an art gallery, or get together with friends over a
glass of wine. I love traveling and experiencing the food & drinks of different cultures
