Asian in Austin

Benjamin Suh am currently a third-year student at the University of Texas at Austin studying economics. He's also the Social Media Director in (un)Jaded, an AAPI-centered mental health & social advocacy organization. Growing up in both the U.S. and South Korea, he was bombarded with two drastically different environments, and this unfortunately provided a lack of sense of community to him. However, through (un)Jaded, he found a healthy sense of community where I was able to flourish and dive deeper into my interest in social media management. This month, we learn more about his experience in both South Korea and the U.S. and what he hopes to continue exploring in his future.
