I’m here in Anchorage as an exchange
student. I came here a year ago, and have been studying English,
Business, Economics and Russian at the University of Alaska
Anchorage. I am originally from South Korea. I am majoring in
Russian Trade and Commerce. I lived in Russia to study for one
year. I like living
abroad because there is always the chance to do something else,
such as participating in this internship at World Trade Center
Alaska.
Since my major is Russian Trade and
Commerce, I am interested in the natural resources field. Russia
has plenty of natural resources, just like Alaska. I am grateful
that I have the opportunity to work for WTCAK and Usibelli Coal
Mine, Inc. I am excited to start my internship here at WTCAK,
and I hope that I can learn more about natural resource
industries and experience the real business world during this
internship.

Hi!

I’m from Incheon University S. Korea. I’ve been here in Alaska
since September 2007. I major Russian Trade and Commerce back in
home university and here in Anchorage as an exchange student.
I’m a senior in university and have been to Moscow as an
exchange student too. So, it’s my second time staying abroad.
As you can find from my little career I like to work in global
relationship. It is so exciting working in here WTCAK and I
expect to see & learn real international business and trade
while I’m staying in here.
Also, I’ll try to practice my university knowledge and want to
be little help to facilitate trade between S.Korea and Alaska.
Whenever you have question about Korea, say me “An nyung”(“Hi”
in Korean) and I will do my best to be help for you. Bye!!!

My name is Dominique
MacGregor, and I came to World Trade Center Alaska (WTCAK)
through the Anchorage School District’s Gifted Mentorship
Program. I currently attend Robert Service High school and plan
to graduate in 2009, after which I hope to gain a degree in
International Business and go to work for the United States
Peace Corp.
Working at WTCAK the last few months has provided an amazing
preview of what a job in this field may entail; one I doubt I
could gain from anywhere else. I’ve enjoyed my time here at
WTCAK, and have learned a lot from everyone there.
Outside of my
mentorship, I’m part of the SHS school paper (the Cougarosity),
take regular dance classes, and teach skating lessons at Dimond
Center Ice Chalet. I also will be part of the 2008 People to
People Student Ambassador trip to France, Italy and Greece this
summer, which I am very excited about!

I
came to Alaska a year ago as an exchange student from the
University of Incheon in South Korea. I am studying business at
UAA right now, and my major in Korea is Chinese Trading &
Commerce. I think that working at World Trade Center Alaska will
be a good an opportunity to learn about everyday business in
America.
I’m really interested in the relationships between America and
countries of the Far East. I heard that Alaska’s top 3 trading
partners are Korea, China and Japan. I am really excited that I
may be able to attend business conferences and meetings while
interning at World Trade Center Alaska.
I like doing things with other people, such as playing sports,
games, traveling and even working. So I am truly glad to work
with these great people and therefore want to help WTCAK as much
as I can. And I also want to make a good memory with them both
in and out of office.

I came to Alaska two years ago as an exchange student
from Russia. I have accomplished my first BA, Global Logistics.
Now I am working on my second degree in Management Information
Systems (MIS).
I really enjoy working for World Trade Center Alaska (WTCAK).
The people I work with are professionals. They encourage me to
study new materials and to develop my skills, association
services, communication routine, and research practices. WTCAK
gives me a great opportunity to experience the business world.
I like sports. I have a background in ballroom dancing and in
fitness. Besides that, skiing is my second favorite sport.
Alaska is an excellent place to ski. After I graduate from UAA I
want to move to a different place to have a new experience. I am
looking forward to getting my Masters degree in Logistics in the
future.

I
am 25 years old. I am from Korea. I am an exchange student
between the University of Alaska Anchorage and the
University of Inchon. My major is Chinese Commerce & Trade. I
studied Chinese in China as an exchange student.
I am interested in studying the Far East’s situation related
with the U.S. Working with World Trade Center Alaska is a
wonderful experience for me because Alaska’s primary trade
partners are Japan, Korea and China. I have learned a lot
through working here and met cool people.
I like biking. So Anchorage is heaven to me because of its bike
trails where I can see salmon and all the beautiful nature. When
I was in Beijing, I rode bikes with a lot of people in the
morning and evening rush hours. The feelings of riding a bike in
Anchorage and Beijing are so wonderful, not to mention gorgeous.
I want to go to other countries to bike. Please join me!! |
