Ku chose sociology as a major because it is “the best way to give back to different communities and help the people in them.” Ku is a refugee from Thailand and says she wants “to be able to help people of different ethnic backgrounds and give them the same opportunities of education and a better life."

Ku plans to graduate in 2023 and continue her education to earn a master’s degree. Ku says that she would like to someday “work in different countries around the world because I love to travel and I love learning about different cultures and environments.”
