  • Junior, Linguistics major

It's an honor to be invited to join the UWM chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. I am entering my fourth year at UWM with a major in Linguistics and a minor in Korean. I am on track to graduate in Spring of 2025. I love languages and the different cultures that accompany them, which no doubt led me to me major. I have been privileged enough to be able to travel to different countries and expand my worldview as a result. I would like to thank my professors in the Linguistics Department and the Korean program for helping me in my studies and pushing me to be a better scholar. I would also like to thank my family and friends, who support me in everything that I do.
