PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

I have worked in several fields and

industries: a certified personal fitness trainer for New York Sports Club; a graphic

designer for the marketing department of an architectural firm called Costas Kondylis

and Partners in New York; a production manager, technical director and light designer

for off-broadway theater shows, of course, also in New York. I was also a coach for a

Dragon Boat paddling team, which raced in New York, Toronto, New Jersey and

elsewhere. All these were in high-pressure environments where I have sharpened my

ability to manage groups, speak effectively, plan thoroughly, solve problems and meet

deadlines.

I also taught English, effectively, in an English Academy in Shillim, Seoul and on a

private, one-on-one basis in Mok Dong, Seoul, South Korea. The children learned well

and the parents are very happy with the results I gave them.

I am confident that as an ESL teacher and personal fitness trainer, my vast variety of

skills, abilities and experience will be of great value to my students.
