EP16 Kevin Yi: Phnom Penh's Pandemic Policy & Advising Mongolian Government
A fellow graduate of Cornell University, Kevin Yi started his career at EY in New York City, before moving inhouse to Dell as a strategy manager based in Singapore. In 2021 at the depth of Covid pandemic, he relocated to Cambodia to work for Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI). Working at the frontlines at a developing country deeply shaped his outlook on life and career, and led his return to campus, where he is currently pursuing a dual MPA-ID/MBA degree at Harvard and MIT.
Whether it’s devising pandemic response at Phnom Penh, or adivising the Mongolian president on renewables energy strategy, Kevin worked at places where stakes are high but resources limited. Tune in to hear his stories as we catch up after 4 years.
