I have a lively and helpful personality, and I chose Fashion Design as I like color matching. Regarding university life, I came to NTU on the Soochow University 2+2 International Study Program. I actively participated in the activities organized by the university , studied seriously, and had good grades. I hope to continue my studies and have also developed a keen interest in other art disciplines.
