About

At present, I am a Stanford Law School student pursuing a JD degree and will graduate in 06/2018. My current activities involve being a member in Submissions Committee in Stanford Journal of International Law, Mock trial, and working for Project ReMADE.

I graduated from University of Notre Dame with a degree in medieval studies, Bachelor of Arts in 05/2015. My senior thesis was about a comparison study between the literary figure Pardoner in The Canterbury Tales and the character Faus Semblant in Le Roman de la Rose. In college, I was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and was on Dean’s List for outstanding scholarship in all 8 semesters (from Fall 2011 to Spring 2015) In the meantime, I worked extensively as a research assistant on Variety of Democracy Project and Confucius Institute Research Project. My other jobs included teaching Chinese in Learning Resource Center for First Year Studies and writing Chinese version of Notre Dame Alma Mater at invitation of Chinese Friendship Association.
