Meet Capri, a 17-year-old from sunny Florida who brings a wealth of talent and passion to this year’s summer teen takeover team. Capri’s diverse interests include film, music, business, and literature. Her Mom is Chinese and her Dad is American making her a child of two very unique cultures. She enjoys listening to music artists from the 70s like Fleetwood Mac and also loves playing the piano, ukulele, and guitar. Further, she loves watching movies and adores the film industry her top pick would be the Marvel great, “Infinity War”. Additionally, she has taken classes on film production at school which have fuelled her love for movies even further.
We asked Capri how she feels about her return to Beijing and she said, “I find myself feeling a sense of familiarity as I return to Beijing, and it’s great to be back in the bustling city atmosphere once again. After living in Florida which is mostly suburban, I am excited about exploring all the restaurants, stores, and activities that this vibrant city has to offer. One of my favorite restaurants here used to be Annies, so it will be fun to dine there again. Although it can be challenging at times being back in a Chinese-speaking environment after getting used to English for some time now.”
Capri recently traveled to Europe in June where she visited London and fell in love with its old mansions as well as the countryside. As an AP student taking rigorous courses such as Biology and Environmental Science; she excels in AP English class (she’s predicting a 5) but struggles with Chemistry. She’s also a SAT icon and scored 1570 which is exceptional. We are thrilled to welcome Capri to our team here at Jingkids Magazine!
