Shuro Lee

Shuro is an emerging professional in Children’s Entertainment. Being influenced by her mom, who is dedicated to early childhood education and parenting education for 30 years, Shuro realized that her teaching abilities could be applied by engaging children through administrative and colorful creative components to this field! That’s what brought her all the way from Taiwan to Canada to pursue Children’s Media at Centennial College. Through the program, Shuro found herself enjoying putting magic to graphics and videos to visualize good stories.
