Hi everyone! I am Annie, currently a student at USC Architecture, and I'm a proud Trustee Scholar. I am an international student where I've had some unique experiences, including overseeing a school, working as an intern for architecture firms and founding a youth charity organization. I love being involved in the community and connecting with people, which is why I’m also a USC Student Ambassador. When I’m not diving into architectural designs, you can find me exploring the city, working on social media projects, or helping with community outreach. I’m thrilled to share my journey with you today and show you the incredible campus I call home!

Describe your college experience

As an architecture student, I've embraced challenges, from intense studio projects to exploring design’s impact on communities. Being a scholar and ambassador let me dive into campus life, connect with inspiring people, and strengthen my pride in the Trojan family. You will most likely see me at the architecture studio, exploring different cuisines and cafe hopping

Favorite class

PHED 160: Stress Management for Healthy Living is one of my favorite class so far. I wanted to recommend an elective class for everyone to just try out at least for a semester. This class will be a great help to anyone in any major. Each class, you have a different activity to do such as yoga, track, core exercise, mind drawing, creative writing, and even sleeping.

Career goals

Aim to start by working at an architecture​/​interior design firm and grow to start my own firm.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Trying out different restaurants or doing activities such as rockclimbing, decorating, or watching movies with my friends.

High school or secondary school

Stamford American International School, Singapore Yangon International School, Myanmar
