    I am a business and water-technology professional with over 15 years of experience leading digital water innovation, infrastructure projects, and international development initiatives. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Chung-Ang University and have completed specialized training in Information Processing Engineering and International Trade.

    Throughout my career, I have managed national-scale groundwater monitoring and smart water infrastructure programs in Korea and overseas, including India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Tanzania, and Saudi Arabia. As Director of WI.Plat, I oversee the design, deployment, and global expansion of intelligent leak-detection and non-revenue-water reduction solutions, working closely with utilities, government agencies, and development institutions to implement data-driven, sustainable water management systems.

    Combining business, technology, and practical field expertise, I specialize in digital water solutions, stakeholder engagement, and performance-based implementation in emerging and developed markets. I am committed to advancing equitable and efficient water access through scalable innovation, capacity building, and international partnership.
