{Virtual} The Power of Feeling and Looking Confident in the Video Era for Women and MEN with Kristina Han '96
Own Your Wonder will discuss simple and effective ways to empower your professional presence by maximizing the environment around you and your appearance.
New standards and etiquettes for one’s digital image and presence are being forged in today’s video era, whether you’re working in a creative space or in a professional services sector. The word “makeup” may conjure up unrelatable images of teeangers and celebrities performing highly technical feats with names like “contouring” and “smokey eyes”. For many women, however, makeup is a purpose-driven and pragmatic tool to achieve a confident and impactful public image, whether in person or on video.
Own Your Wonder will demonstrate simple and effective ways to determine and achieve your effortless, confident look with the tools and products you already own. We will cut out all the noise around confusing products and techniques and focus on easy-to-follow tips and tricks appropriate for your unique facial features.
Essentials Tools for Looking Your Best on Video
Even if you consider yourself “old-school” and believe the best communication method is face-to-face, the evolving realities of today’s workplace include a certainty of videoconferencing at some point in your work schedule, whether you are in a creative space or in a professional services sector. Your first impression across the screen and the overall visual impact of your presence is more important than ever.
Own Your Wonder will discuss simple and effective ways to empower your professional presence by maximizing the environment around you and your appearance.
Kristina Han graduated from Harvard in 1996 with joint concentration in East Asian Studies and Government. She received her law degree from Duke University and her masters degree from the Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). She started out her career as an investment banker at J.P. Morgan before switching to law and working at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom and TPG Capital. She was on the Korean and US national swim team and represented Korea in the 1988 Olympics.
Kristina was inspired to embark on a drastic career change when she couldn't find a place to go for a polished, professional look for her work meetings and interviews. As a busy working mom, she wanted to outsource a part of her daily routine that she didn't enjoy and was not very good at. So, she started a "Dry Bar" for makeup. Kristina is pioneering makeup-as-a-service with the creation of DC’s first makeup bar, a unique and inspiring beauty experience with its first location in Georgetown, that focuses on inclusivity and individuality looking at each person's unique facial features, skin tone and the look a person wants to achieve.
