Austina started STEAMED Playground when she realized that what she watched, read, and experienced at an early age shaped the ways she currently learns, plans, works, and makes decisions.
During her 10+ year career at different technology companies (Children’s Creativity Museum, Autodesk, Adobe, FrontRow … etc.) as a designer and marketer, her focus was education, believing the right education is the most important asset we can pass on to our children to ensure a better future. She is also a co-author of the book 교육을 가로막는 벽 (The wall that prevents real education) in South Korea.
As a Founder & Director of content, she hopes to grow a parent community that shares the same parenting mission; “raising a diligent, critical thinker who will become a responsible leader”. Through STEAMED Playground she hopes to share her cross-cultural background and experiences living and learning in Asia, America, and Europe to help parents expand their toolkits to improve their own lives and the lives and educational experiences of their children.
