Jessica LiuCalifornia State University - Fullerton
Los Angeles, CA, United States I was born and raised in sunny Southern California, a community rich with ethnic diversity. My parents had moved to the U.S. from Taiwan and many of my friends also had parents that were of Taiwanese descent. However, like the westernized American teenager I was, I never gave my heritage the proper acknowledgment it played in my life. Thus, being a part of TASC has been my way of exploring this special piece of my cultural identity. This privilege has provided me with the opportunity to finally get to learn more about about the beautiful culture of Taiwan, the people living in the wonderful country, and a side of me I never appreciated. Lastly, connecting with people with different passions from all over the world was what I enjoyed most about the 1st annual TASC and why I'm back for more! |
