There she\u2019ll join the newest class of Schwarzman Scholars, pursuing a master\u2019s degree in global affairs. Johnson is among 151 scholars in nearly three dozen countries, chosen from more than 3,000 applicants worldwide for the all-expenses-covered graduate leadership program.<\/p>\n<p>Schwarzman Scholars are \u201chigh-caliber individuals with open minds and limitless potential who will serve to deepen understanding between China and the rest of the world,\u201d according to the group\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson fits the bill. She\u2019s already working as a cancer researcher for the National Institutes of Health, chiefly focused on understanding metastatic traits that allow tumor cells to colonize secondary organs. She also is a fellow at the NIH Academy on Health Disparities, studying gaps in health outcomes and addressing related issues.<\/p>\n<p>Classes for Schwarzman Scholars are taught in English, but Johnson brings the advantage of fluency in Mandarin \u2013 a language she started learning as a child in Columbus, Ohio. She refined those skills at Mary Washington, where she double-majored in biology and a self-designed course of Chinese cultural studies.<\/p>\n<p>At UMW she was seemingly indefatigable, joining the Student Government Association, the African Student Union and the Asian Student Association. She was also a resident assistant for four years, competed in track and field as a first-year student and volunteered for Habitat for Humanity building homes in Florida. In addition, she founded a STEM mentoring program for children in underserved communities.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson intentionally sought out Mary Washington peers with international backgrounds for one-on-one conversations. \u201cTheir cultural experiences, unlike my own, helped me see global issues through a different lens and the need for this understanding to make a real difference,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She formed lasting friendships with several students: Olayemi Fadahunsi \u201921, who shared her knowledge of Nigeria; Chase Forster \u201921, who is a Fulbright recipient teaching English in Bulgaria; and Burundian native Nehemia Abel \u201920, who is a Payne graduate fellow at Georgetown University.<\/p>\n<p>Most notably, Johnson worked with the Center for International Education (CIE) to complete a semester in Xian, China, where courses included intensive language studies and traditional Chinese medicine.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:7,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.umw.edu\\\/news\\\/2021\\\/12\\\/07\\\/china-bound-graduate-focused-on-global-goals\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:230672515}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1100px;
