Jake Lee Email & Phone Number

I began my first career at one of Korea's major global trading companies and grew up as a corporate sales professional. Then, I established a start-up company with friends and colleagues. We developed, manufactured, and exported the innovative digital set-top box receiving versatile broadcasting signals for TV. I led the corporate sales and marketing sector, and the company made great strides and eventually succeeded in the initial public offering to the Korean stock market.After the first great achievement, I looked for an opportunity to refresh myself and prepare for the next career phase. Vancouver, the most beautiful and cordial city in the world, was my best choice.In Vancouver, based on my Bachelor of Laws(LLB) from university graduation earlier in Korea, I started the Post-Degree Diploma (PDD) courses at Douglas College. I studied for two years both "Sales and Marketing" associated with CPSA (Canadian Professional Sales Association) and "International Business Management" associated with FITT (Forum for International Trade Training).Looking back, I needed more academic knowledge when I entered corporate sales. Everything I learned was mostly from my actual practice in the field. Thus, returning to college and studying became the most precious time in my life since it allowed me to reinforce my work capability by giving me feedback from the assessment and evaluation of my whole work in the past. After all, it greatly encouraged me in every aspect of my life, entering the next career stage.
