While attending James Logan High School, she volunteered for the YMCA program Youth and Government, an organization aimed at involving and educating young people in the political process.

The program director for another station happened to see the piece and approached her to host the teen-based magazine show First Cut on KRON, the then-NBC (now MyNetwork TV) affiliate in San Francisco.

After a year working on Internet Tonight, a daily half-hour show at ZDTV, she was recruited to be a correspondent on KRON.

As a correspondent for "MTV Daily News", she has interviewed Mariah Carey, *NSYNC, P. Diddy, George Lucas, Jane's Addiction, Mary J. Blige, Billy Idol, and Fred Durst.

In 2008, Pak had left MTV News for Planet Green to host G Word, which is co-hosted by Daniel Sieberg.

In October 2020, it was announced that Pak would be joining Lemonada Media's podcast slate as the co-host[4] of the new show Add to Cart alongside comedian and actress Kulap Vilaysack.

The podcast launched on November 17, 2020 and is “a subversive and fun way about talking about consumerism, and how we all participate in it.”[5] In 2021, Pak resumed her role as narrator of MTV Cribs.
