Exciting news! The results came in for the EPIK video contests I entered last month. I won the Gold Prize for MY EPIK LIFE and Silver Prize for my CO-TEACHING IN SOUTH KOREA. As I said on Instagram, creating videos is a hobby and I quickly turned it into a passion project with these contests. Producing and editing these videos was a blast and I’m humbled to be recognized (let alone awarded!) for something I do just for fun.

The day after we found out the results, Nancy and I brought in rice cake desserts for the staff because in Korea, it’s tradition to share some of the wealth. Everyone was supportive and congratulated us to the best of their English abilities. I’m seriously so lucky to be a part of such an awesome community, especially one that consists of a majority of intelligent, strong and talented girls/women.
