Hosup's Story
I left Birmingham Southern College after a year and headed north where I ended up graduating from Temple University. I worked on Wall Street for several years and went back to school and got an MBA from Wharton UofPenn. After graduating I joined a boutique consulting firm where we advised tech startups and IT companies on everything from market positioning, business development, investment funding to IPO.
I left that after a few years and ended up comng to Korea, my native country, for a business venture of my own. However, the onset of the Asian financial crisis put an end to that business. I next moved to Japan where I lived and worked for a year and a half at a venture incubator which was quite interesting. I returned to Korea again where I held jobs at KPMG, Ernst & Young, and JP Morgan in their principal investments group. While at the various firms, I had the opportunity to spent time in numerous places such as London, HK, Singapor...Expand for more
e, Uzbekistan, Indonesia, etc. for projects.
Currently, I am the country managing director for the Korea subsidiary of Epuron GmbH, a leading company in the investment and development of renewable energy projects worldwide including solar, wind, hydro, and bioenergy power plants.
In my spare time I travel whenever I can as Korea is close to many great travel destinations having great beaches and night life such as Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, and Malaysia. I also enjoy participating in both winter and summer sports, i.e. boarding, soccer, fitness, biking, etc. As of yet, I am still single. I guess all this moving around has made it hard to hold down a steady relationship long enough to walk down the isle.
Currently, I don't have immediate plans to go back to the US. Actually, I'm not sure where I'll end up next, I'll just play it by ear. If anyone is interested in getting back in contact my email is: sky.yim(at)gmail.com
