Graduation year: 2023

What has been your favorite class at Athenian? 
My favorite class has been Environmental Literature. I never thought of integrating environmentalism and literature at the same time. We read a lot of novels addressing environmental issues and how humans developed technology and forgot about how essential nature is. The class taught me to develop the ability to see things from different point of views.

What are 3 unusual things about you?
1. I speak 3 languages: Mandarin, English, and Japanese. I also speak a little Taiwanese.
2. I am half Japanese and half Taiwanese. I grew up in Taiwan, but attended a Japanese school there. 
3. I went to a boarding school in Massachusetts before Athenian. I like the west coast more because the weather is better.
