About Me
I am a Duke University student currently studying engineering. I was born in Seoul, South Korea, but lived in America for all of elementary school.
Other Interesting Facts
- I have a twin sister, who is also in Pratt School of Engineering at Duke.
- I studied in an international school in Korea, so my English is better than my Korean.
- I like playing soccer and doing yoga.
My Name
My last name, Park, is one the of most common Korean names. I have two first names: Jee Hye (my Korean one) and Sophia (English). Jee Hye, which means "wisdom", was my birth name. The reason Sophia is my English name is it also translates to "wisdom" in Hebrew. My English name is easy to pronounce: Soh-FEE-ah. My Korean name is pronounced like, but not exactly, "Gee Hey.' The syllables are equally stressed.
