Describe your college experience

Brown is such a wonderful place to be. Coming into college, I had a lot of imposter syndrome and lacked confidence. Here, I found the most welcoming group of people who empowered me to pursue things I never thought was possible. Brown really is the "happy Ivy."

Tip for future students

Everyone here is extremely down to earth and open to exploration. Don't take any moments for granted, and be where your feet are. You will do great!

Favorite class

CHIN0450, Advanced Chinese for Heritage Learners - I was able to reconnect with my heritage and culture alongside an incredible supportive community. My professors were my second parents and often hosted us for dinner. To this day, the people I met from the class are some of my closest friends.

Career goals

I plan to matriculate to the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University following my college graduation in 2027. I hope to become a physican!

Ideal way to spend a free night

I love running and cooking, so a sunset run followed by a cozy dinner with close friend is my go-to.
