Drift Reality > Who We Are

After spending a year teaching English in Korea, I came back to the United States with 30 hours of digital video I had recorded, and several notebooks filled with journal entries I had written about my experience in the country.

That Summer, I spent 8 hours/day teaching myself how to edit video so I could spin all the raw footage from my trip into something that people might want to watch. The final work is called Miguk.

I developed Drift Reality as a platform so people from around the world would be able to view Miguk, and a digital version of my travel journal. Over the past four years, I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to travel around the world, and have always attempted to document my thoughts and vision in Drift Reality.

A little about myself: I was born in Washington, DC, to a Persian mother and a Korean father and I grew up between DC and Cleveland, Ohio. I graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in English and Music, and spent a
year studying English literature at Kings' College London.

I've been working for an Internet media firm for the past four years, where I've gotten to manage media development projects for groups like the National Iranian American Council and the Club of Madrid.

In the Fall of 2006, I headed to the London School of Economics to pursue my MSc in media and communications. While in London, I developed a Web site and brand strategy for the Advertising, Marketing, and PR Society; developed a Wiki for the media and communications department; and completed a dissertation on social media.
