Personal Life

This section is dedicated to highlight my life outside the classroom. It displays my extra-curricular activities along with personal interests.

Family

When I am not living at Albion College I live with my family in Lake Orion, Michigan. My mom and dad have been married for twenty-nine years and are both retired from working at Daimler-Chrysler. My sister, Kim and I are both adopted from Seoul, South Korea. Kim is currently a senior at Lake Orion High School and is planning on attending Grand Valley State University to concentrate her studies on education. Both of my parents are frequent fishers of the lake we live on and my sister has found her passion to be in art.
