Future Goals: To become successful in whatever I do
What have you done to make an impact on the Asian community, as well as Temple University? I am in an Asian-interest sorority and we do community service to help out the community. Our philanthropy for Alpha Sigma Rho, is China Care and we raise money to help our orphans in China. What makes you proud of your ethnicity? I am proud of being Laotian because we are unknown. Beng Laotion makes me feel unique from other Asian ethnicity's. Honest, weird, understanding |

Future Goals: Get into Dental School/ Be an Orthodontist
What have you done to make an impact on the Asian community, as well as Temple University? I am a sister of Alpha Sigma Rho Sorority Inc. And as a sister I have been involved in many events including our annual philanthropy to help raise awareness on campus about orphans in China as well as being a volunteer in the Mid-Autumn festival. In addition I have been on our e-board for the past two years. Describe a strength and a weakness: One of my strengths is that I am extremely detailed and try to be a perfectionist. Everything I do I like to have it done perfectly and to the point. However I would also say that being detailed and a perfectionist is also one of my weaknesses. Sometimes I tend to focus and spend a lot of time perfecting one aspect of a project I loose sight of the whole picture and waste a lot of time or get discouraged that I couldn’t create what I had envisioned.
