Hi! I’m Kiana, a sophomore studying Accounting. As a Student Assistant at MIX, I help both inbound and outbound students navigate the planning and next steps of studying abroad. Preparing for my own upcoming semester in Japan in Spring 2027 inspired me to get involved with the office! Outside of work and classes, you can usually find me hanging out with my uncle’s dogs or checking out new places to eat.

Hello! My name is My Que and I am a senior pursuing a B.A. in Psychology and Political Science. I was born in Vietnam but grew up here in Honolulu, Hawai’i. I studied abroad with MIX in my Spring 2026 semester at Korea University. After graduating, I plan on taking a gap year and apply to a Psychology PhD Program on the mainland. I am interested in exploring how identities are politicized and affect our social perceptions. In my free time, I like to try new foods, journal, and listen to music.
