My name is Gina Kim and I\u2019m a first year Journalism grad student at BU’s College of Communication. As a 24-year-old California native, I am an-ex business magazine writer, metaphysical poetry enthusiast, and a certified boss in the making.\u00a0I was an English literature\/classics major at the University of California Santa Cruz and wrote for my on campus satire humor publication during my senior year of college. I was also a competitive student athlete for 19 years, which meant I pretty much had no life all. Eventually, I competed for my alma mater\u2019s NCAA Division III Women\u2019s Swimming and Diving team.\u00a0Originally, I was planning on getting my Masters in English Literature straight from undergrad, but realized I didn\u2019t want to stay in academia forever. So, I put all my eggs in one basket and applied to BU’s College of Communication. Now I’m here. In my free time I enjoy reading, watching Bob\u2019s Burgers, RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race, listening to metal, and blogging arbitrary complaints about crappy corporate coffee shops, social justice, the patriarchal society, and monogamous relationships.<\/p>\n
