Global Perspectives – Jennie Wu

“Driving through the streets of Columbus while feeling exhausted and petrified, the sight of Wexner Medical Center fell into my eyes. The stories from under my pen had finally come true. At that exact moment, I knew the one year of longing and waiting was all worth it. It felt like a dream being able to step on the gentle grass of the Oval after five long, exhausting flights. The bold shade of scarlet and the vast Oval had a familiar yet unknown feeling.”
