    * J.D. Candidate, 2016, University of Virginia School of Law. I am grateful
to my friends and colleagues in Taiwan who have given me the passion to pur-
sue this topic and the endurance to continue to chase greater ideas and bridge
cultures. And I am thankful to my family for their continued support during my
academic career and to Professor Thomas A. Massaro for his guidance and ex-
pansion of my notions of global interconnectedness and of how classroom ideas
can lead to global solutions.
