Hello EDCI 337!

I am Sohee-Katie Kwon, but please feel free to call me Katie! I am a fourth-year BCOM student at the University of Victoria.

I am thrilled about the opportunity to learn and collaborate with fellow students and our professor, Mary.

I am based in beautiful Victoria, BC. I am currently doing my last co-op as a Junior Business Analyst at a SaaS company – very interesting but also perfectly aligned with my future career aspirations.

Beyond this course, I have a passion for exploring new places, cooking up delicious meals, and staying active through workouts. If you know of any fantastic hiking spots in Victoria, please share—I am on the lookout for great hiking areas!

In my free time, you will most likely find me at the gym or a cafe, getting work done. One of my favourite cafes in Victoria is Hey Happy—such a beautiful cafe with a fantastic selection of food and coffee. I would love to hear about your favourite places too!

I initially enrolled in EDCI 337 to fulfill my graduate requirements. However, as I delved into the course concept and watched the introductory video by Mary, my interest was sparked in understanding various types of media and how each medium can cater to different types of learners. One of my childhood passions was teaching elementary students English in Korea, and I believe this course will offer valuable insights into how I can further pursue this profession if I choose to follow this path.

I look forward to this course and meeting other students!
