Student Assistant Column

Hi! My name is Emily Zhang, a sophomore at Sixth College studying Business Economics with a minor in Marketing. I grew up in Bellevue, Washington, 20 minutes east of Seattle. I love taking photos of the little moments, recording videos, and editing a vintage vlog out of every outing. I’m a yapper and a big food lover, and you could catch me on the golf course! I’m always excited with the idea of trying something new - so here I am, starting my journey as a Sixth College Academic Advising Assistant :) My advice is always to say “Yes!”, even if something scares you a little.
