About me:

Hello everyone! I’m Teiyoon, a rising sophomore living in Matthews, originally from South Korea but I moved to Scotland when I was around 13. Since then I’ve loved getting into all kinds of sports like rugby, football (soccer), basketball, squash, and sprinting, so I’m always down to talk about anything sports related!

On campus, I play for the Harvard Men’s Rugby team, so if you’re even slightly interested in rugby definitely come chat to me! I’m also involved with the Korean community on campus and write research and articles with the Harvard Sports Analysis Collective. Academically, I’m really into chemistry and thinking about a concurrent master’s in chemistry or chemistry and physics, with economics as a second interest, so feel free to ask me about any of that too! I’m super excited to meet everyone and can’t wait for an amazing start together!
