Hi! I’m going to start using my birth name/Korean name professionally now — Ji Min! It’s pronounced “g-min.” I was so hesitant to make the change because it would be “so confusing” but I love my name, it’s what my parents call me and it’s me! 💃🏻 #callmeJiMin

A recruiter once told me that I would never be able to work in political journalism since I “didn’t have the right connections” in DC. I didn’t “succeed” out of spite, but this just tells you that things are possible with hard work, luck and timing. Oh also, just be kind. ❤️
