Incredibly proud to share my wife @cleejin's new children's book: "Hami's Journey Home" - hamisjourneyhome.com
Hami is short for Hal-mu-nee, which is the Korean word for grandma. The story is about her grandma's life: from fleeing North Korea as a child - alone - to meeting her husband and building a family and new life in 🇨🇦.
It's a universal story that any descendant of immigrants can resonate with: first giving up everything and losing all sense of home, to struggling to integrate in a new place, to finally realizing that a home is more than a place - it's what you make of life.
It's beautifully illustrated, heartwarming, and a great way to introduce your kids to their heritage as well as be thankful for where they live today.
Please check it out, share it with anyone you think it would resonate with, and see the video to watch her process in building it.
Inbetween baby's naps and coffee we shipped a site with the goal of making it easier for parents to step outside with their baby for some fresh air. It's in beta so would love some feedback or local tips! --> babyintow.ca
Launch day! 🎉 What started as a fun conversation with @cleejin a few months ago has turned into a full-blown MVP product. Excited to get feedback, and make plans to grow to more neighbourhoods! babyintow.ca/
T-minus 1 wk until my tour of duty with @code4ca comes to a close. It was a term well spent unpacking the adult ed space and building products to help address the low literacy and numeracy skills of adults in Ontario (fyi, it’s 46% and 53% respectively)

“Designing and building a product where the overarching KPI is to deliver positive social impact has been a delight.”
Code for Canada fellow @cleejin reflects on why she chose to bring her product management skills to the public service.

The past few months have been a wildly fun, challenging, and humbling experience working as a little startup in a large government.
