About

My name is Chaoran Mark Zhang, I moved to United States from China when I was 22. I am currently studying finance as my major and planing to study statistics as minor at Mississippi State University. I have five years of work experience in China on out door media, advertising, computer hardware integration and sales section. I am planing to go to the graduate school immediately right after I finish my bachelor degree. Being studying in a country where English is my secondary language was a rough beginning, especially for my freshman year. But after the first year as I got more and more used to it, and plus I could always found the common grounds among the business classes and my work experience, my interest and motivation as well as my confidence have been built up little by little. I will enter the second half of my junior year in spring of 2015 and I am looking forward to take more upper level major classes.
