Having received the Endeavour Australia Cheung Kong and the Victorian Government’s Hamer scholarship awards, Rowan was granted the opportunity to study International Relations and Korean language at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea.
With a strong passion for wanting to further strengthen the Australian-Korean relationship, Rowan commenced work at Chamber in 2016.
Fluent in English and Korean, Arnold was born in Seoul, South Korea, and moved to Sydney, Australia, when he was 10.

Thanks to his personal and professional background, Arnold has a strong desire to further develop the Australia-Korea relationship with the Chamber.
