Sadie Allen is currently a freshman in the Honors College at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Prior to her enrollment, she took a gap year through UNC’s Global Gap Year Fellowship, which enabled her to volunteer in Xi’an China and Split, Croatia. Now, she is majoring in Global Studies and minoring in Mandarin Chinese. In 2018, she was a CIUS Center People-to-People Honoree and was able to visit China through the Confucius Institute US Center. Sadie grew up in a rural area and loves how language learning can open up the world to oftentimes isolated people. She also loves working to make language learning more accessible to all.
