WHY I AM IN CHINA
In October I was selected to participate in a student run consulting project through Cornell's Student Multidisciplinary Applied Research Team (SMART) program. My team members include Jonathan Davey, a lawyer for the Canadian Department of Justice; Andrew Joseph, a former sourcing agent in Guangzhou; Yana Karadjova an undergraduate in Agriculture & Life Sciences, and Hua Li, a first year CIPA fellow from northern China. Our assignment was to help Yiyang Light Manufacturing Co Ltd develop a new marketing strategy and address labor supply issues.
