What have you been doing since graduation?
I worked at different daycare centers in Portland and Beijing. Currently, I am studying Psychology at a community college in Arizona.
How did Lewis & Clark prepare you for post-college life?
L&C taught me to stay strong, tough, and positive to face difficulties from work, study, and personal life. In the meanwhile, I take my curiosity to explore and discover my journey.
Why did you major in French Studies?
The reason why I majored in French Studies is so I can study abroad in France. And I can live with a French family, which is completely different from living on campus.
What would you say is the most important thing you learned at Lewis & Clark?
The most important thing I learned at L&C is communication. Communication is the way to express myself, and to know a little more about myself. Also, it is a way to cooperate with others.
How do you stay connected to Lewis & Clark as an alum?
I email staff who work at the International Student Office periodically. Also, I read emails from L&C.
