Key People



Alyssa Zhu –
Maid of Honor

Alyssa has been my partner in crime since 2002. From battling the awkward adolescent years to crying about studying for the GMAT, the memories that we’ve shared together are countless. If I don’t receive a daily 8 text long essay detailing her day and mood, I will panic (because let’s be honest, it would be extremely easy to kidnap such a small person like her).

Rebecca Zhang –
Bridesmaid

My mini-me! Rebecca has been by my side since she was born. Since weirdness runs in the family, she completely gets me and goofing off together is second nature to us. She has always been the Shansi-Brian number 1 fan (and now the #1 Mars chocolate loyal customer)!


Anastasia McManus –
Bridesmaid

Anastasia and I quickly became friends Freshman year of high school through our love for dancing, singing, and taking pictures of ourselves, making weird poses. This girl has always been there remind of the importance of love, family, and amazing friends.





Hannah Kembel –
Bridesmaid

Hannah has welcomed me into the family since day 1 when Brian and I first started dating. She has never failed to bring me on a fun adventure through our search for desserts and all things yummy. What a great bonus to my already-won Kembel lottery!





Amarisa Robison –
Officiant

Amarisa and I were formally introduced to each other during one of our senior year events at BU by a mutual friend who realized we would both be working at Ericsson after graduation. Little did I know, she was going to be way more than someone who just worked at the same company as me. She was my rock as we ventured through our first jobs together and figuring out this “adulting” thing. To this day, I can’t imagine a day at work without her!
