Welcome, Summer 2016 Interns!
Meet Cece and Keiki, two of our amazing summer interns! Say hi when you see them around! Read more to learn more about why they decided to spend the summer at FIUTS!
Every quarter, FIUTS is lucky enough to have student interns who help us with all kinds of tasks in our office while having an opportunity to meet people, gain work experience, and learn about international education. Cece and Keiki are two of our summer interns. Say hi when you see them around! Here they are, introducing themselves to our community:
Name: Xiruo (Cece) Zhang
Hometown: Tianjin, China
Year: Senior
About me: Hi there! My name is Xiruo, go by Cece if you don't know how to pronounce my Chinese name-- a lot of people don't so no worries ;) I'm a senior student at UW, major in Applied Physics, and minor in Mathematics. I've joined FIUTS as a facilitator for almost 2 years, and I learned a lot more than just leadership. FIUTS provides a great chance meeting new friends from all over the world, it's such an amazing experience knowing people that have similar interests as you but with a completely different background. During free time I like to stay outside when the weather is nice, exploring new places and food around Seattle area. However if it's raining, which happens quite a lot, I like to watch anime at home and play online games like League or Overwatch with friends.
Name: Keiki Hatsuiwa
Hometown: Japan
Year: Junior at Japanese University (came to Seattle last September)
Major: International Business/Marketing
About me: Keiki is an international student at Bellevue college and studying international business there. He is from Japan and came to Seattle last September. This is his first time studying broad, so it is a big fun and challenge for him. He wants to communicate with many people from all over the world and learn their cultures, which is why he decided to join FIUTS. In his free time, he likes playing/watching sports, especially basketball. He went to Los Angeles to watch Kobe's game on last winter vacation. He also likes watching TV shows and movies and eating food.
Thanks to our awesome interns for supporting FIUTS with all your hard work!
