Conrad served as a professor of Fine Arts and Humanities at Central Texas College.[1] In 2015, she taught Korean art and tea culture through the Extended Education program at Texas Christian University (TCU).[3] Her courses were included in the university's Spring 2018 Lifelong Learning Catalog.[4] She presented the paper Cross-Cultural Visions at the Harbin Institute of Technology in China.[1]
As president of the Texas chapter of the Korean Dado Association, Conrad conducted Korean tea culture outreach programs at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), Texas Christian University (TCU), Korean schools, art museums, and community organizations throughout Texas.[5]
In 2012, The Korea Times reported that Conrad assisted in organizing North Korean defector artist Song Byeok's first U.S. exhibition at the Goat Farm Arts Center in Atlanta, scheduled for February 17–26.[6] She was later identified by The Washington Post as a translator in connection with exhibitions featuring Song Byeok.[7]
Conrad served as the 23rd president of the Fort Worth Korean Association.[8] During her tenure, she led a variety of community and cultural initiatives, including Korean cultural outreach through the Dragon Boat Festival, Korean War commemorative events, Korean Independence Day celebrations, and preparations for the Korea–U.S. Cultural Night.[9]
In 2020, Conrad received the Asian Outstanding Achievement Award from the US Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce Education Foundation–Southwest (USPAACC Southwest) in recognition of her contributions to Korean cultural education, arts, and community leadership.[10]
In 2026, Conrad published An Artistic Journey: Korean American Art Book on Identity, Memory, and Photography.[11] The publication was featured by Arizona State University Library's Sun Devil Shelf Life program.[12] Later that year, The Korea Times published a profile of Conrad, discussing her work on Korean American identity, memory, and diaspora.[1]
