LEADERSHIP TEAM

PRESIDENT

Savannah Chun (전은영) is a sophomore at The Hockaday School. She is a third-generation Korean American.

“Growing up in America, I often felt distant from my Korean heritage, but, through KAYAT, I gained the opportunity to learn more about my culture and heritage. Being a founding member of KAYAT has allowed me to connect with my roots and understand how my cultural identity influences almost every aspect of my life. I am honored to be able to proudly share my culture with others through the arts and serve as a reminder of how important heritage is to oneself.”

TREASURER

Rachel (신지수) is a sophomore at Allen High School. She is a second-generation Korean American.

“Being Korean-American growing up, I was always taught that preserving my culture was important. I consistently speak Korean at home and make sure to eat Korean foods and participate in Korean traditions. By preserving my heritage, I want to ensure that never once am I ashamed of being Korean. My appreciation for my heritage has grown stronger through KAYAT, and I wish to spread the importance of preserving the beauty and intricacy of our culture.”

SECRETARY

Grace (김민아) is a rising 8th grader at Trinity Christian Academy. She is a second-generation Korean American.

“As a second-generation Korean American, KAYAT has encouraged me to learn more about and embrace my culture, rather than hide or be embarrassed by my heritage. KAYAT has provided me with the opportunity to share Korean culture with the community, and I have enjoyed meeting new Korean American friends along the way.”
