Hello hello, visitors to the GLOCAL Experience website. I’m Annie, I am 23 years old and originally from Honolulu, Hawaii.

I have a degree in Media, Globalization and Multinational Governance from New York University. My broad interdisciplinary study as an undergraduate has lead me to a number of professional experiences in the past few years, ranging from multimedia grant writing, to work in music industry as well as audiovisual event management.

The defining theme in my career and my reason for coming to GLOCAL has been thinking about innovation for social benefit, specifically through multimedia arts, design, and technology.

I believe that GLOCAL reimagines what a master’s programme should be. I hope that GLOCAL will be an opportunity for the entire cohort to imagine what the future might be. Either on our own or hopefully as a collective.

Number one for me is creating lasting relationships. In other words, I hope that the people I spend everyday with now, my programme mates, will continue to be a part of my life going forward.
