Hey, I’m Stella Kang

Hey, I’m Stella Kang.

Officially, I was born on Long Island as a blonde Korean-american named Stella Kris Kang. The hair color changed after three days. However, to commemorate those days, I recently dyed my hair to a similar color. One might say this was a rebellious act against my mother right out of high school. I just wanted to go blonde.

Throughout high school career I’ve explored several areas of study, however, I can’t say that I’m sure about what I want to do in the future. I’ve spent most of high school involved in the classical music and my high school orchestra. I started playing piano when I was about four years old, followed by the violin, the viola, and the guitar. Though I’ve spent a lot of my life invested in music, I decided that it wasn’t something I’m particularly passionate about, and that it would have to remain a hobby while I explored for a greater passion. I played volleyball and join a local archery tournament. I also attended acting/theatre school for a summer. And I read plenty of books. But still, nothing for sure.

 That is, until my senior year of high school. I took an AP Microeconomics course, and found it to be the most naturally intriguing class of my high school career. I found that the study of something that consistently affects my life was incredibly fascinating, and I decided that I would spend my undergraduate career studying business. I’ve also discovered a big interest in makeup and fashion, so combining that with business, I’ve begun research on the fashion marketing industry.  I don’t know whats going to happen four years from now. But I’m excited to continue exploring myself and my surroundings. Perhaps I’ll find something new, or perhaps I’ll love what I already love even more.
