Noelle Qifu Cress, an Advertising Art Direction major at Temple University, is a city girl at heart and loves the thriving diversity of Philadelphia. She was adopted from China when she was 21 months old, so she has enjoyed reconnecting with the culture of her birthplace through learning the Chinese language, cooking the food, and more. Her Chinese name is 柯 琦芙, or Kē Qífú, meaning rare and treasured lotus. Noelle is a born-again Christian who loves the Lord and seeks to love the people around her regardless of race or religion.
