After graduation I went straight to UVSC (now UVU) for further studies and was able to receive my associate of science degree in computer graphic design in 2001. While I was there, I started got involved with student government. (I guess I wanted to make up for all the high school years of not being able to “talk” due to my very limited English abilities.)
I was elected as the PR officer for International Student Council, became a mentor for the UV Leader Program (now UV Mentors), and was one of four public speakers at the multicultural speakers bureau. I graduated in ‘07 with my bachelors of science in multi-media communications technology and a minor in mathematics.
Since scholarships only funded part of my education, I worked as a project manger at Globalization Group in Orem, while being a full time student, where I specialized in localization/translation projects and also became a voice talent for several major corporations around the globe. Additionally, I helped a friend to start up a modeling/acting agency/school which has now relocated to NYC.
The summer before I graduated, I was accepted into Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco office, Vera Wang’s NYC Design Firm/Corporate Company, the US Senate’s office in D.C., HRIC (Human Rights in China) NYC office, as well as Governor Jon Huntsman Jr.’s office for total of five internship opportunities. After a lengthy debate, I chose Salt Lake City for my internship experience. (And yes, Huntsman’s Chinese is THAT good.)
After completing my internship, I started to work as Director of International Business Development for a corporate company here in Salt Lake City. At the same time, I got involved in the local community’s pro bono legal programs for minority youth and women. Listening to the youth and women’s amazing stories not only reminded me of myself when I first came to the states, but also motivated me to start my preparation for a degree in the legal field. I am now working for ACE Test Preparation here in Provo during my preparation for the LSAT.

Nancy! It sounds like things are going very well for you. My job has me working on a contract with officials from Hainan Province, China. I get to start taking Mandarin this fall, and I'm really excited about. I'll never speak it fluently, but oh, well.
Take care!
Hi Nancy. Good luck on the LSAT. When are you taking it? Congratulations on your fascinating journey over the last ten years.
Wow Nancy. Seems you've been having a great decade.
