Min Young is a first-year DMA Harpist at MSM. She holds a BA in Government and Economics from Smith College; MM in Classical and OP Harp from MSM. Away from the harp, Min Young has formerly had professional experience at Millennium Villages Project, CNN International, Asan Institute for Policy Studies, and World Childhood Foundation USA. She brings this diverse experience to her music and her musical adventures.
As an international student herself, she understands the challenges of writing papers in a second language. It can be an equally daunting task for native speakers with little exposure to academic writing. As an avid editor and a fan of analytical writing, she is excited to share her experience and facilitate the process for anyone who might be new to this academic demand.
