    "If I could tell anyone one thing it would be: study abroad. I decided to travel and intern in Beijing, China because I wanted to go somewhere unique and put myself in an environment I was unfamiliar with. I got all of that and more. After spending my entire summer in China I am leaving with networking skills, new knowledge of the foreign sector of marketing, having attended embassy events, and with an overall appreciation and infatuation with China."
