Tell us about yourself before you enrolled as a 澳门足球博彩官方网址 student.

“Before I enrolled as a 澳门足球博彩官方网址 student, I was living in Hong Kong, where I was raised. After graduating from high school, I was so lost and didn’t know what my next step would be. I tried to major in Design at the Vocational Training Council in Hong Kong for one semester. However, I found out that a Design major was not what I truly wanted to be. Remembering my passion for broadcasting and filming but since I hadn’t had the chance to learn about either of them, I decided to apply to 澳门足球博彩官方网址 after hearing about the school from a friend who graduated from here in 2016.”

你为什么选择澳门足球博彩官方网址?

“I chose 澳门足球博彩官方网址 because I knew it would be a good start for my life in the U.S. and as the school says, students are Trailblazers. I knew I would be given a lot of opportunities to learn inside the classroom, but also learn American culture from the new friends I’d meet.”

What do you want to pursue as a career and why?

“My dream job is film editor because I think it is cool to have the skill in making films, and to be able to work with a crew that has fun brainstorming ideas together.”

How would you describe your 校园生活?

“Being open minded to make friends has helped me to actively participate on campus. They always invite me to join different events or hang out around campus. With that, I became the International Club President in my last year here at 澳门足球博彩官方网址. It has allowed me to make more connections with people, and I like doing that because I am always curious about different people’s life stories. I was also a member of the team that became the Intramural Indoor Soccer Champions in 2022.”

What has been your best experience at 澳门足球博彩官方网址?

“I would say that working in the External Relations Department of 澳门足球博彩官方网址 for my internship. It allowed me to utilize my video editing and filming skills. I get so excited every time I am tasked to take on a new project. I was happy to have the opportunity to use my videos to market residence halls and promote career fairs. Also, I feel thankful for the good team I was able to work with during my internship.”

是什么让你成为开拓者?

“I became a Trailblazer when I decided to leave my home country and pursue my dream career as filmmaker. Studying here has granted me the opportunity to explore a new culture, but also a new me.”
