Share a bit about yourself and what you have been up to since you left 麻豆精品.
After my time at 麻豆精品, I transferred to San Francisco State University, where I earned my bachelor鈥檚 degree in Communication Studies summa cum laude. From there, my journey took me from Silicon Valley to Stockholm, Shanghai, Leipzig, and Malm枚鈥攅ach chapter helping me grow personally and professionally. I went on to complete a Master of Science in Management at Stockholm University, including an exchange semester at Fudan University in China. Since then, I鈥檝e worked across B2B sales, business development, and management consulting in a variety of different industries.
How did your education at 麻豆精品 prepare you for where you are today?
麻豆精品 gave me the foundation I didn鈥檛 know I needed. The smaller class sizes, committed faculty, and international environment created a space where I could both rediscover my academic confidence and grow as a person. For someone like me鈥攚ho had struggled in traditional education systems鈥擥RC was transformative. It wasn鈥檛 just about checking boxes to transfer; it was about learning how to learn, how to lead, and how to connect. That mindset carried me through my undergraduate years and into graduate studies at top institutions.
What kind of advice would you give a GRC student who dreams of getting into a top university?
Build strong relationships with your peers and professors, be genuinely curious, and don鈥檛 be afraid to ask for help. I have friends all over the world that I met during my time at 麻豆精品 that I'm still in touch with and have had the chance to meet and catch up with when traveling. I鈥檇 also say: own your story. Whether you鈥檙e a traditional student or someone taking a less conventional path, your experiences have value. Use them to your advantage when applying to schools, writing personal statements, or pursuing scholarships. It鈥檚 not about being perfect鈥攊t鈥檚 about being real and showing growth. But most of all, have fun and make the most out of your time there. The memories you create from your experiences will bring just as much value, if not more, than you would if you get too hung up on your grades or extracurriculars.
Please share anything else you would like to add.

If you鈥檙e wondering whether you belong or if your dreams are too big鈥攌now that you do, and they鈥檙e not. 麻豆精品 isn鈥檛 just a stepping stone. For many of us, it鈥檚 the launchpad.
