Minji's marketing post

Hello y'all!

My name is Minji Kim, originally from Korea, and I'm a student at Oregon State University and enrolled in dual enrollment with Linn Benton Community College. I'm majoring in marketing and am passionate about seeing various marketing strategies used around the world. I used to go to a college in Korea with an English Literature major and decided to study abroad in the U.S because I found a value in myself that I really enjoy adopting diver cultures and be engaged with people with different backgrounds when I studied academic English in New York in 2018. The reason why I switched my major is that I have inspired by fancy electronic boards in Time Square street when I stayed in New York City for seven months. Obviously, Manhattan is one of the most gorgeous places in the world. It's super bright during the night which makes you forget the passing of time. I can't wait to work in the marketing area after I finish my degree, and all marketing classes from both OSU and LBCC have made me super excited.

For a little more about myself, I really enjoy traveling around the world as well as do I'm super outdoorsy. I love to work out, go hiking, go to the beaches to get tanned, but a fun fact about me is that I can't swim! I've tried to learn so many times I don't think I can float on the water ever, but I will never give up! I'm looking forward to living my adventurous life in the near future and filling my life story with amazing memories!
