About Me

I am a junior with honors in journalism and international studies at the University of Kansas.

I have been the public relations chair for the International Student Association at KU for more than a year. ISA provides me a platform to share my experience and promote the awareness for the KU international community, and further develops my campaign skills with comprehensive and all-side thinking.

Furthermore, I am currently interning at Jennings Social Media Company in Kansas City. Through this internship, I have gained extensive knowledge toward social media and professional editing tools, such as Photoshop and InDesign. I am a self-motivated and confident person, and I have always been good at developing alternative perspectives in examining projects and situations. Besides creativity, I also have the ability to work independently.

I enjoy doing a lot of different things. The spirit of adventure is in my blood.
