About

My name is Annette Lee. I am a U.S. citizen born and raised in Taiwan. I came to the States after I graduated from high school in Taiwan. I am right now majoring in International Affairs at the University of Colorado Boulder. In addition to reading books or articles related to politics and international affairs, I am also interested in learning foreign languages. I think I am a gentle and imaginative person. Outside of class, I like to engage in creative interests, such as drawing, cooking, or baking. I am also a compassionate person with strong ambitions, which is why in the future, I hope to be able to engage in work related to international affairs, humanitarianism, human rights, intelligence agency, diplomacy...etc.
