I really feel thankful for this opportunity, as it allows me to meet with different people and gain new experiences. Through my interactions with ethnic minority women and by listening to their stories, I was able to connect the abstract theories I learned in sociology to real-world contexts and it in turn inspired my research interests in relative topics such as culture sociocultural theory and intersection between gender and immigration.
It is great that I can contribute my own skills such as Chinese dance and video editing to support women, kids and teens to strengthen the entire community while learning their culture, traditions and religion. And they are always so kind and hospitable during all our interactions, which really makes me feel moved and fulfilled.
