Saniya Malhotra

Saniya Malhotra is a current sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania, majoring in International Relations and Economics. Her hometown is located in the suburbs of Maryland. She is currently learning Mandarin Chinese at Penn and has taken multiple courses on the East Asian region thus far. She is excited to engage her language and class learnings as a Blog Writer with the China Center this semester. She is particularly interested in documenting talks about China in the economic and defense spaces, as those are the fields she predicts with the most growth in the near future. She views this collaboration with the China Center as a great foundation for her International Relations senior thesis, which she hopes to concentrate on the East Asian geographical region.
