Since starting my graduate program at Duke, I am often reminded of the stellar preparation I had with my Environmental Studies degree.
Through my Spanish major I developed the ability for critical, concise, well-written work throughout my post-graduate career.
“If every discussion about how to communicate or understand a social issue started with a history lesson, we would all be better off.”
"The Barbara Yen Sun Prize funded my research in New York among the largest Tibetan community in the US."
I was exposed to an academic environment, process, and professionalism that I had not previously encountered.
“Today I embody ‘never fear change.’ I've received the love and support of my professors, advisors and the amazing community of Frances Perkins Scholars.”
Joining Alexi Arango's research team as a first-year student built confidence in the classroom and the laboratory.

“The American culture encouraged me to explore outside of my comfort zone, while the Chinese culture was a mystery inside of me.”
My experiences at Mount Holyoke helped me grow into the sort of woman confident in her ability to do whatever she wants.
