Adam Pang
Program Coordinator
He earned his B.S. in English and M.A. in Second Language Studies. Helping people learn is his passion. He thrives on assisting people in achieving their academic goals, enhancing their writing skills and acclimating to academia. His academic interests include socio-cultural learning, writing instruction, and program evaluation and assessment.
Outside the LAC, he enjoys nature through biking and hiking. He travels more miles on his bike and on the hiking trails than in his car. He relaxes with dining on flavorful foods and trying to duplicate them in his kitchen. He rarely follows a recipe, so every meal he cooks is an experiment. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t. Taste life!

Hello my neighbors! My name is Brian “Fubuma” Kim. I am a Computer Engineering Major with a hint of game development. I am a natural introvert which tends to surprise nearly everyone I meet. I thoroughly enjoy history, learning new languages, restoring the Byzantine Empire in 1444, playing strategy games, 3D modeling, reading manga, gardening, and developing my game. I have an adorable younger sister, whom I affectionately call “Stinkabinidae” and an older sister. I started learning Greek and German as a result of pandemic boredom, so if, for some reason, you are able to read this but unable to speak English yet able to speak either German or Greek, I got you about 10% of the time. I’ve worked several odd Jobs here and there, so like the grandpa I am, I’ll never run out of stories. I’ll be glad to help y’all with Japanese; Physics 150 - 272; any Math below Calc III; programming; EE260 and EE260 Lab.
