Lyndi Tsering is a first-year M.A. candidate in the SFS Asian Studies program. She has been a performer for as long as she can remember, both training in and teaching children multiple dance styles as well as acting. Her commitment to working in the U.S-China foreign policy space stems from her personal experience as a Tibetan-American and her passion for international relations. Lyndi’s past endeavors include internships with the U.S. Department of State and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, dancing in a community ballet company, studying migration and art in Rome, and serving as the outreach coordinator for a college Christian dance group. As a Lab fellow, Lyndi hopes to create spaces for mutual understanding to tell the stories of those who are often marginalized in international discourse.
At a time characterized by polarization and distrust, the need for approaches that humanize others through narrative and empathy has never been greater. The Lab is dependent on outside funding in order to make our work possible.
