As a sophomore, Davies took a global business course in Japan and became fascinated with the country’s aesthetics and design. 她大三的时候, Davies traveled to South Africa as part of the university’s Service Break Experience to work in a children’s home, where she often communicated with kids by drawing, 讲故事和唱歌. “I realized I can use my eye for design to communicate in other cultures,” she says. Now she’s excited to travel to Malaysia, an opportunity that will test her communication skills while also immersing her in the colors, textures and visual stimulation of Southeast Asian culture.
