I’m a journalist working in New York, writing about Silicon Alley for the International Business Times.Before moving to New York, I was an editor at city magazines in Seoul and Hong Kong, where I wrote profiles of artists, entrepreneurs and everyday expats. No matter where I am, I enjoy talking to people about their deepest passions. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-17028451-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
