Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advance subjects, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts, and get teased.  Your commitment to be a strong supporter and advocacy for civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability. Also being an Asian American with a disability is difficult for me because some Asians including some Asian Americans tease me or get judgmental about me being different along with how they believe that I don’t meet their standards. Your role as an Asian American on advocating for Asian American rights including Asian American with disabilities’ rights helps give me some confidence about being an Asian American when I face different challenges.  Your current role as U.S. District Judge for the District Court of Maryland gives me motivation to continue to learn history including social justice.

In history I have always like visiting museums, memorials, and historical or cultural sites to help expand my knowledge, understand how different historical period or culture has shaped society, and learn not to repeat the same mistakes in the past. Another thing that I like in history is to learn the importance of make civil rights stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, expand on health care to help improve lives while combat against diseases, have immigration reform to help protect immigrants including refugees from being oppressed, and many others,  Your role as 18th President of Williams College helps me continue my motivation to learn history, social justice, and diversity.  I hope someday I can use what I learn to make a difference for society.
