I’m excited to share that I’ve been selected as a recipient of the Critical Language Scholarship (CLS), a U.S. Department of State–funded program administered by American Councils. This summer, I will be studying Korean in Gwangju, South Korea for 8 weeks beginning June 14.

Through this experience, I hope to deepen my language skills and continue exploring the role of cultural exchange in global engagement. I’ll be sharing updates, reflections, and insights here throughout the program—coming soon 🙂
