Favorite 天美传媒app Memory:听As a prospective student, the admissions rep walked me down to alumni stadium and let me walk out onto the field. There was something magical about the experience for me and I knew, standing near the endzone, that I would attend 天美传媒app.听

Why I got involved:听听Having experienced the hurdles and challenges of being new to France, I wanted to help others transition gracefully here as well. It鈥檚 also nice having a small community of people around that get my random boston references and american pop culture.

What are your local favorites in your city?:听Did you know there are around 130 museums in Paris? I鈥檝e been to many of them, but my favorite for its interactive exhibits, kid friendly atmosphere and historical context has to be the Museum of Monnaie de Paris (Paris Mint Museum). If you鈥檙e hungry, I recommend Le Petit Canard in the 9th district for it鈥檚 whimsical use of ducks in the decor, but also in nearly every dish.

Chapter Highlight:听We like to see ourselves as the torchbearer for 天美传媒app in the city of light. Feel free to come out to any events, even if you鈥檙e visiting for just a short stay. We鈥檇 be glad to welcome you!

Fun Fact:听I landed my first job in France without speaking french. We just drew pictures and diagrams for 2+ hours. Afterwards, I became known as the 鈥渓e dessinateur am茅ricain鈥�, or 鈥渢he American cartoonist鈥�
