Why Hopkins-Nanjing? Perspectives from Alumni

As the Hopkins-Nanjing Center begins to gear up for the 30th Anniversary Celebration this June, we asked alumni to reflect back on their HNC experiences.  “Just one year of study ended up having a very large impact on my life,” alumnus Brian Wong (HNC 1997) comments. Brian went on from the HNC to become one of the very first non-Chinese employees at Alibaba and only the 52nd at the company. He now serves as Vice President in the Office of the Chairman, Jack Ma. 

Watch the following 2-minute video to hear more perspectives from HNC alumni.

Alumni featured in the video are:

Brian Wong (HNC 1997) Vice President, Alibaba Group
Brantley Turner (HNC 2000) Vice-Principal, Shanghai Qibao Dwight High School
Helen Yan (HNC 1995) Vice President, Corporate Development, Sanofi
Jonathan Garrison (HNC 2000) General Manager, International Cooperation Development,  Wanda Group
