"Ni Hao Kai-Lan lol~~ I'm Alex aka. the TSA chopstick man cause you'll probably see me stick out in the crowd at every single TSA event this year.
I was born and raised in Taiwan and I came to the US as an exchange student in Arizona. I left AZ and came to UW because I was so done with the heat there until I realized that nothing could be worse than non-stop rain for a month haha. But the TSA family has continued to warm my heart just like the sun and I'm so glad that I chose to become a TSA officer  <3"

I spend most of my free time in a coffee shop or in lab but I also like to go out and explore the city of Seattle for some cool photoshoot. Trying to figure out my life as a senior but also trying to live at the moment to have the full college experience package ;)

Hi! I'm Amber, and this is my second year at UW. I moved here from Canada in search of good friends and good food, and I think I might have hit the jackpot here in TSA. I can usually be found in the corner of the room, simultaneously laughing at nothing and everything . . .

This year, I'm working on TSA's marketing and cross-organization collabs, so if you're interested in working with us, feel free to reach out to me!

I love basketball, but I'll probably lose to you unless we are talking about NBA 2K lol. My favorite food is pasta and I like it way more than rice. I hope I don't get stoned for that. I also love all kinds of chicken, ALL KINDS!

Having two places I call home as well as identifying with two nationalities, sometimes it's difficult for me to find a happy medium.

I eventually made it here to Seattle, a wonderful city. Even though throught my journey, Ive had to say some goodbyes I never knew were possible to say and missed some people I know I shouldn’t miss, I have come to learn that home isn't where you are its who you’re with. This year I joined TSA to find my home here at the UW, and contribute what I can to my new family. Work hard Play hard!

Hi! I moved to Seattle when I was in 7th grade from Taipei, Taiwan. One of the many reasons I joined TSA was to meet more people who connect with my culture and share similar background as me.
