“When I first
came to the USA as
an international student, I had
to learn about the culture. It was
challenging at first, but now I love it
here. My advice to other international
students is to give yourself the opportunity
to be open to new experiences. Just
take a second to breathe and know that
everything you’re doing will pay off
at the end.”
