My name is Hassane, and I’m a senior at Columbia College, where I’m studying business management and International relations.

Since I was a kid, I’ve been interested in the wider world outside of the United States and have had the privilege to travel to every continent - some of my favorite destinations are the United States, South Africa, Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Senegal. One of my goals after college is to spend an extended period of time (1+ years) working and living in a foreign country.

Most recently, I spent a semester on exchange at the University of Hong Kong, where I took classes on foreign affairs, international development, and Chinese. Before that, I also studied abroad in Taiwan, where I lived with a local host family.

I’m very happy to chat about food, travel, hiking, photography, and international business topics!
