Our Team

Junseo Choi

Co-Founder, Co-President, Math & Music Curriculum Director

My name is Junseo(Eric) Choi, and I view education not only as a means of academic success but as a foundation for confidence and opportunity. Education has consistently challenged me to think beyond myself, encouraging me to question inequality and consider how my actions affect others. These lessons pushed me to reflect on what it means to use the opportunities I have been given in a meaningful way. I believe that personal growth carries a responsibility to contribute to the wider world. While learning has opened doors for me, I have become more aware that many students lack even the most basic tools required for learning. Things often taken for granted, such as desks or proper classroom spaces, can determine whether a student feels motivated or discouraged. Recognizing this gap led me to seek ways to act, not out of charity, but out of a sense of shared humanity. The Mozambique project represents my belief that change begins when individuals take action, even in small ways. By supporting access to essential educational equipment, I hope to help create environments where students can learn properly. I fully agree with Nelson Mandela’s words, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Though these efforts may begin small, I hope many will join, allowing us to unite into a force that can uplift Mozambique. I am committed to doing my part toward that goal and will do my best to support the lives of those in need.

Sangyoon Kim

Co-Founder, Co-President, Math Curriculum Director

I am Sangyoon Kim, a junior at Harrow School in the UK. I have developed a profound passion for Mathematics and Chemistry, drawn to the elegant structure, rigorous logic, and careful reasoning these disciplines demand. Through my own learning journey and experience tutoring younger students, I have come to view education not merely as the delivery of answers, but as the transformative process of shaping how individuals approach learning itself—fostering curiosity, resilience, and independent thinking. This philosophy drives my desire to contribute to the Mozambique project. I hope to work alongside local teachers and students, supporting the creation of sustainable, teacher-centered learning environments that empower educators to guide their students effectively long after our involvement ends. By sharing resources, facilitating teacher training workshops, and co-developing curriculum materials tailored to local needs, I aim to build capacity that promotes lasting educational equity.

Harin Yoo

Co-Founder, Co-President, Biology Curriculum Director

My name is Harin Yoo, and I am interested in how fields like biology and economics can help to protect endangered species. When I first arrived in Hawaii for boarding school, I was amazed by the islands’ natural beauty. Each time I saw a new bird or flower, I immediately searched to find its name. My initial fascination turned to worry, though, as I found out how many of those amazing species were endangered. So, I began to get involved in protection efforts. With Friends of Hakalau Forest, I joined reforestation projects to plant trees in areas affected by wildfires. I also connected with the group Nature Kenya to get a new perspective, assisting a study on protecting native tree species. In the future, I hope to design policies combining international relations and environmental law to prevent environmental collapse. Until then, I want to educate as many people as I can about ecology and international policies to inspire further efforts. I’m excited to share my passions with students in the Mozambique project, supporting more hands-on learning in the sciences.

Taeyeon Kim

Co-Founder, Co-President, Chemistry Curriculum Director, Head of Public Relations

Hi, I’m Taeyeon Kim. As a student passionate about neuroscience and psychology, I love to explore the unknown. I believe that by exploring what lies beyond human limitations, we can bring meaningful change to society. I have put my ideas into practice through endeavors such as the Dream Lab at school, a group I founded to discuss how dreams relate to other processes in the brain, as well as how dreams can provide insight into someone’s mental state. I encourage members to keep a dream journal, and we talk about the possible meanings behind dreams that members share with the group. Another of my psychology-related initiatives is the Mind Pillow Project, a mobile application I am creating to address the high rate of depression amongst teachers in Korea. With a professional counselor as my mentor, I am making the app into a platform for Korean teachers to connect with counselors in their area. The project has been a great way for me to put neuroscience concepts to practical use, hopefully helping people in the process. As the Head of International Relations for Youth Edu Visionaries, I hope to achieve the same positive outcomes I work toward in my other projects. Through our Mozambique project, I aim to provide significant positive contributions to international society while challenging others to do the same.
