About Alyssa Wang

Alyssa Wang is a twenty-three year old Chinese-American woman who currently lives in Barcelona, Spain, where she teaches other young adults how to speak English. A year ago she graduated from Northwestern University with a degree in neuroscience, and while Alyssa always thought she would go to medical school to become a neurosurgeon, her unexpected yet spontaneous decision to move to Spain is one she does not regret. In the future she plans on attending medical school, but in the meantime her main interest is learning more about media and how its different aspects impact society. As a young woman whose daily life consists of all sorts of media–from social media, to cinema, the internet, and so on–Alyssa wants to explore and have a deeper understanding of these media facets.
