Describe your college experience

It was a rough journey but I am still here. I had to move in alone, eat alone, and study alone. Yet through this journey, I found friends, family, and myself. It is a rough yet refreshing and exciting place.

Tip for future students

1. Do NOT limit yourself. 2. Live for you, not your friends. 3. Explore, Fail, Repeat.

Favorite class

SOC113Q: Asian Americans at the Margins allow me to explore the intersectionality of asians in America and how we move, live, and embody our culture in a land far away from what we called home.

Career goals

Hopefully a scientist researching in a clinical background.

Ideal way to spend a free night

No homework notification, milktea and ramen, and my favorite show. All on my bed.

High school or secondary school

I went to North Garland and Garland High School.

Meeting point

Tanner Fountain on the Stanford University campus
