Curriculum Vitae

 

nmfSynopsis - I was born the youngest of my family and raised in Chuncheon, Kangwon-do, South Korea. I attended at Kangwon Nat'l University as an undergraduate and also as a graduate student. I received my M.Sc. degree under Dr. Kyu-Tek Park with my thesis entitled "Systematics of Subfamily Gelechiinae in Korea." I received my Ph.D. under Dr. Richard L. Brown with my dissertation entitled "Systematics of Holartic genera of Teleiodini (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)." After completing my Ph.D., I continued my studies as a Research Associate at the Department of Entomology & Plant Pathology, Mississippi State University. Since 2012 I am the Collection Manager of the Hasbrouck Insect Collection at Arizona State University.
