      Participated in an exchange program in Kowloon, Hong Kong from January to May of 2017 where I was able to dive into Hong Kong culture.

    • BI Norwegian Business School

      2017 - 2017
      Master of International Business (Exchange) International Business

      I conducted my second exchange semester in Oslo, Norway. I wanted to further my education in a place that dramatically contrasted Hong Kong.

This experience has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of cultures and continued to promote acceptance of others who are different than me.
