    As a purple and proud Western alum, I am passionate about promoting and strengthening Western’s presence in Vancouver and Shanghai through the alumni network. My positive experiences and friendships at Western have inspired me to act as a bridge that connects alumni in Vancouver and Shanghai with each other and with Western.
