EXEC INTRO #20: Yoojin 🛼

Name: Yoojin

Year: Final

Area of Study: Psychology

Hobbies: Rollerblading, pole fitness, trying new cafes and restaurants

Hello! My name is Yoojin (she/her) and I’m the Co-VP Planning for the Korean Conversation Club. (KCC) It’s nice to meet everyone! I will be supporting KCC and KGK towards their events. I’m looking forward to our events this year as I think Korean culture has so much to offer to our UofA community and campus. I’m in my final year of Psychology and I am also finishing up my certificates in Community Service Learning, International Learning, and Applied Social Science Research. I like to rollerblade in the River Valley during the warm seasons in Edmonton so pretty much only for 3 months if we’re lucky. Other than that, I’m into pole fitness and trying new cafes and restaurants. Please feel free to send me recommendations
