I'm a cancer survivor turn patient advocate and social entrepreneur who is building a telehealth platform for music and dance for patients.

I was one of the lucky ones that turn interest into a career - a multi-disciplinary creative director and designer working for the high-tech industry. I'm passionate about combining design, technology and human factors to create state of the art products that impact our daily life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been invited to speak at conferences about my project, however conferences tend to be popular, they don't necessarily cover my travel, and sometimes I want to stay extra days to get to know the city a bit, or meet people can help us bring the project forward. Since we are still bootstrapping, I need to be conscious about my travel cost.

I also love to connect with people who has a kind spirit, positive attitude, and care about making a positive social impact.

A friend told me about Couchsurfing, so I'm here to check it out. :)
