Possip 2024 Summer Interns
Jie Xin (Jasmine) Chen | Data Analyst Intern
Jasmine is currently pursuing a Master’s in Analytics at Northeastern University, with an expected graduation date next March. Originally from Taiwan, she studied Hospitality Management with a bachelor’s degree in Taipei. Despite changing her major, she has a strong foundation in data analysis due to two internships she completed after graduation, both focused on data analysis, one in the education industry and the other in the entertainment industry. This experience allows Jasmine to adapt to various fields, which is one of the main reasons she pursued a master’s degree in data analytics. She is energetic and outgoing. Her interests include dancing, working out, playing computer games, and hanging out with friends. Jasmine is passionate about her field and aims to become an excellent data analyst or project manager in the future.
