Hi! I'm a physics and global studies double major with a profound interest in Cheerios. I grew up in Taiwan and came to the U.S. when I was 16. At first I barely spoke any English, using only the present tense to navigate the jungle known as high school. Three years later, I have fallen in love with journalism and become a managing editor for this 150-year-old company.  If I can do it, you can too!
