Career Development

1. I obtained my master's degree (MPA) in Nonprofit Management from Cornell University in May 2023. I currently work full-time at Cornell University Chesterton House. With the numerous internships and jobs that I have had during my college and graduate school years, I aim to help students build their pathway to have a successful career alongside of an excellent academic background. 2. I worked as a Consultant at The World Bank Group in Washington D.C. My passion for policy analysis, law, and veteran affairs also led me to do a Congressional internship in Congresswoman Cheri Bustos's office in Illinois (IL-17). 3. I was the former Vice President of Communications in Cornell University's Graduate and Professional Student Assembly. Collaborating with the UN Habitat (United Nations Human Settlements Programme), I was the Project Manager and Project Lead at Cornell University, School of Architecture, Art, and Planning (AAP). I was also a Public Policy Researcher for multiple professors at Cornell Brooks School. 3. With my passion for education and nonprofit management, I have worked for an education nonprofit organization in Washington D.C. for 2 years (i.e. Youth for Understanding USA). My interests in international development, immigration policy, and refugee resettlement led me to work in a local nonprofit for another 3 years (i.e. World Relief, an organization assists immigrants to settle down in the U.S.). 4. As a Project Manager at Cornell AAP, I led a first-ever global research project on surveying world executive leaders of local governments. This Cornell project was the world's first initiative on surveying global city leaders of more than 1,000 urban cities (drawn from the UN universe of urban agglomerations), representing 165 countries, in 23 languages.

College Counseling

1. I am an Ivy League graduate who knows the way of getting into prestigious institutions in the U.S. and the world, who has 5+ years of tutoring experiences in college and graduate school. 2. I specialize in helping students tailor their resume, personal statements, diversity statements, etc. to get into Top 30 colleges or graduate schools in the U.S. and the world. 3. With my wide array of working experiences, I help students plan their college application process and their way of getting involved in volunteering in order to make an attractive resume to the Ivy League colleges and prestigious schools' admissions offices.

Project Management

1. I served as a Graduate TA (Teaching Assistant) in a graduate-level Project Management class at Cornell University, Brooks School of Public Policy. 2. Worked as a Project Manager for the United Nations (UN-Habitat) and Cornell University 's Center for Cities. 3. Worked as the Consultants for the World Bank (Washington D.C.) and Global Livingston Institute (a sustainability nonprofit organization), which both required excellent project management skills to succeed. 4. Served as a Congressional intern at Congresswoman Cheri Bustos' office in Illinois, which helped me develop excellent project management skills.

Public Speaking

1. I am a relationship builder and a people connector, who is also a passionate working professional who is skilled in public speaking. While I was serving as the Vice President of Communications in Cornell University's Graduate and Professional Student Assembly, I spoke in numerous public and private events representing Cornell students. 2. I served in the Presidential Board of Augustana College's Student Government Association. Using my excellent public speaking skills, I advocated for students' needs and helped students of color to share voices to the school administrations. 3.

This Cornell project was the world's first initiative on surveying global city leaders of more than 1,000 urban cities (drawn from the UN universe of urban agglomerations), representing 165 countries, in 23 languages. This unique experience has trained me to be highly proficient and experienced in public speaking because the role required me to present in research events Microsoft Excel, Outlook, and Qualtrics (i.e. a survey software).
