About me

Originally from Seoul, South Korea, I am a graduate student at University of Colorado Boulder, speech and debate coach, volunteer software engineer, and an accessibility advocate. My interests are operating systems, Python, assistive technologies, screen readers, software source code as rhetoric, and organizational communication.

What I do

  • Nonvisual Desktop Access: I have been a part of this screen reader project since 2012, starting out as a translator then moving onto publishing add-ons and pull requests. Some of the highlights of my work include wxPython Phoenix (version 4) research, Python 2 to 3 transition, ongoing work on Windows 10 and 11 support, and launching NVDA Users and Developers Conference (NVDACon) in 2014.
  • College teaching: currently I serve as a teaching assistant for an introductory communication studies course at CU Boulder. Prior to this, I coached competitive speech and debate to college students.
  • Windows Insider: I have been part of Windows Insider Program since 2014 and have been testing preview releases of Windows operating systems, with an emphasis on providing feedback that centers accessibility of various features for people with disabilities.
