Hello!

My name is Kersti Straub-Kuo, the KSK in KSK Culture. I am a travel and culture enthusiast passionate about design and writing.

I grew up with a creative spirit. I was always drawing or writing, even when I should have been doing other things. I don’t draw so much anymore, but I still love to create brilliant works of art for people. I am a double-bachelor degree holder, with my most recent being from Florida International University, with a B.A. in Public Relations, Advertising, and Applied Communications. 

In my free time I like learning languages, writing for my East Asian culture blog and spending time with my husband, cat and dog.
