In this video interview, Gina Liu, one of Penn's eight Thouron Award Winners for 2018, reflects on what she's learned about herself during the fellowship process. We chat with her about leaning in to dreaming big about her future, finding nuance in unexpected places, and coming to terms with having the penguin as her spirit animal.
Gina will be reading for an MSc in Evidence-Based Social Intervention and Policy Evaluation at Oxford next year.
