Originally from West Orange, New Jersey, Hudson is interested in global business, language, and cross-cultural exchange.

On campus, Hudson is involved in BlackGen Capital, where he serves as Vice President of Education and helps lead programming on financial modeling, valuation, and stock pitching. He is also a member of Penn Growth Equity, where he explores investment opportunities and develops his interest in private markets.

Through the Penn Global Seminar on Chinese Language and Culture, Hudson is excited to deepen his Mandarin skills through full immersion and engage directly with students and professionals in Beijing and Shanghai. He is especially looking forward to visiting sites such as the Great Wall, Tiananmen Square, and the Bund, as well as participating in company visits and cultural exchanges with local university students.
