Hi! My name is Jennifer, and I’m a junior majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology with a certificate in Data Science. Outside of academics, I enjoy going for walks and practicing yoga. Over the past year, I participated in the WISCIENCE Transfer Student Mentoring program, which allowed me to connect with many peers, including international students. I’m not only an international student myself, but I also transferred from a university in Korea after completing the first year — and to be honest, adjusting to college life in the United States wasn’t easy. Because of that experience, I deeply understand the loneliness, fear, and sense of isolation that international students might feel when living and studying far from home and family. I’m excited to support fellow international badgers as they adjust to campus life, and I’m committed to helping them build a meaningful and fulfilling experience here!
