Alumna Feifei Sun, writer and communications professional
Feifei Sun (B.F.A., advertising, 2008) explains how the education and encouragement she received at SCAD helped her develop a creative versatility that has led to a dynamic career leading communication strategy at major companies like McKinsey and writing for publications like Huffington Post, Time, Vanity Fair, Vice, and more.
"I was pushed to explore what I wanted to do by professors and fellow students who believed in me and made me feel like I could accomplish that at a time when I didn't think I could. [SCAD] ... absolutely helped me land the job that I have today and the life that I have now in New York."
