We all thought starting a brand new event at UCI would be a really big challenge, but we all worked really hard to make it a success. I also planned Shocktoberfest and Wayzgoose but people already know about these events in school, so marketing for these events isn’t as difficult. Just watching this little idea grow inside my head, and having my committee members meet every single week, and then to see the complete outcome of the event was just an absolutely amazing experience. It’s an event to promote original artistic talent in hopes of boosting the morale of the university. It’s this new event that I started along with my committee through my position on ASUCI. JW: On campus, something I take the most pride in is Soulstice.

KS: What have you accomplished here on campus, and what do you hope to accomplish? I have an older brother and sister, who both graduated from UCLA, so I’m the youngest, and I’m finally graduating, which is very nerve-wracking and bittersweet. My family is of Chinese descent, but my parents were born and raised in Korea, so we have some Korean background in our family as well. JW: I was born and raised in Orange County, and I attended public school in Huntington Beach. Jun has held positions in many organizations on and off campus, and his friend Kenny Azama commends him in saying that “there is seriously nothing this guy can’t do and he has made so many opportunities for other students on campus.” However, for the time being, Jun just hopes to enjoy his last five weeks here at UCI. Jun keeps himself busy as an RA in Mesa Court, an intern for Creative Artist Agency, and ASUCI Vice President of Student Services. If that doesn’t go through, he is planning to move to LA to work with the entertainment industry. Jun will be travelling abroad to South America with some friends, and he is considering teaching abroad for a year or two. Through planning these events, he hopes to provide an unforgettable college experience for the students to leave a positive and influential impact. Jun Wang hopes to leave a lasting impression on the students of UCI, by planning events like Soulstice, Shocktoberfest, and Wayzgoose. Posted by Asian Pacific American Awareness Conference on
