I will be spending 11 and a half weeks in China. For 10 of these weeks I will be working at RIT Weihai as an advisor. For the last week and a half of my trip, my adoptive Mom and I will visit the town and orphanage in which I lived. We will also be volunteering to help remodel an orphanage in Daiyaou.

​

I was adopted from China when I was 9 months old. I do not speak any Chinese and I have only visited China once before when my Mom adopted my little sister, Jade, in 2008. I do not know who my birth parents are; however, I may decide to try and find them when my Mom and I visit the place from which she adopted me.
