Welcome to Academic Resources Hub!

Hello! My name is Liz and I serve as an Academic Skills Coach for the PharmD students on both Twin Cities and Duluth campuses.

I am originally from South Korea but have stayed in the U.S. for the past 10 years since my Junior year in high school. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. program at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, majoring in Comparative and International Development Education. Before I started my journey as a Ph.D. student, I graduated from College Counseling and Student Development program and served in different positions in higher education including academic advising, career counseling, and housing and residential life during and after her program.

With a background in student affairs, I am hoping to create an environment that is inclusive and accessible to all students whether it is in a meeting or in a classroom.

I am happy to connect with any students who are looking for academic/study strategies or want to chat about balancing personal life while pursuing the PharmD program.
