"Sangsun Yaksu (상선약수, 上善若水) Flow with water, flow with nature" are the words that Dr. Casey Youn continues to carry with him as he flows through his own life; taking any opportunities that comes his way. Born just 7 years before the Korean War broke out, Dr. Youn developed an altruism to give back to community after seeing the aid that the U.S. gave back to Korea during a time of devastation and need. To this day, Dr. Young uses his various work skills - which range from chemical engineering to coffee shop owner - to give back to his Korean American community. He now acts as President of the Korean American Association & Community Center of Houston.
