While studying in Seoul, South Korea I hope to have life-changing experiences that I can only get abroad. My goals are to learn as much as I can, step out of my comfort zone, and grow on professional and personal levels. I look forward to immersing myself in South Korean culture and learning about the history of a foreign country through first-hand accounts.
