My essays will be focused on my musical background, the challenges I faced when I moved from Canada to California in middle school, and the multicultural experience I had in my childhood with English, French, and Chinese.
Hopefully, my teacher recommendations will be good, but probably not spectacular.
Thank you so much for taking the time to chance me, I really appreciate it!
