In this special Lunar New Year episode of The Fuqua Show, host Aaliyah Brown sits down with Katherine Zhu and Jiaqi Jiang to explore global journeys, cultural identity, and the power of community at Fuqua. Both serving as Presidents of the Greater China Club, Katherine and Jiaqi are deeply committed to fostering connection and cultural exchange across campus. Katherine, an international MBA student from Shanghai with experience at Roche and Medtronic, shares how her cross-continental background shaped her passion for patient-centered storytelling and her decision to pursue an MBA in the U.S. to deepen her understanding of healthcare innovation. She reflects on leadership, content creation, and building community both at Fuqua and through her growing digital platform. Jiaqi, a second-year MBA student from Chengdu, brings his experience in real estate marketing and urban planning to life through his passion for creating large-scale, memorable experiences. From reviving signature events to leading cultural initiatives, he has played a key role in strengthening the Fuqua community, while also exploring a new career path in tech through his internship at TikTok. Together, they offer thoughtful reflections on belonging, leadership, and what it means to carry culture forward while building a global future.
