Elsa (Zhengqi) Gu (BU '25)

elsazqgu@bu.edu

Hi, I’m Elsa (Zhengqi) Gu! I’m from Shanghai, China. I’m a sophomore at BU and my major is Economics. I am specifically interested in Behavioral Economics because it relates to our decision-making, which is unpredictable and complex. What I like most about UWE is that it empowers women to be more confident, to find interests and to voice out. In my free time, you can find me reading, doing yoga, listening musics in my dorm, or running along the Charles River.

Hi everyone!
