Why did you choose Robinson for your graduate education?
When I enrolled at Georgia State as an undergraduate in summer 2018, I was very nervous, but I quickly fit in. I got a lot of support from my professors and classmates. My experience was great, and I feel so proud to continue being a Panther.
How will the degree propel your career goals?
I've done a lot of traveling, and envision the business world as needing technology to support it. Robinson holds top rankings for innovation. Through the master's program, I will build the new ideas and technology skills necessary to innovate and build a strong career.
What unique background and perspectives will you bring to classroom discussions?
I have five years of work experience and am from another country. Sharing a different perspective can spark and create new ideas during classes.
What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken?
I spent 15 days hitchhiking from Sichuan, Chengdu to Tibet, Lhasa with only a backpack.
