Overview
About Me
I love adventures, hanging out with friends, and bringing laughters to others' life!
Currently I am pursuing my master degree in Software Engineering in the US, I love the diversity in the bay area. I am happy to meet new people and learn more about their culture. As a software engineer, one of the great things about my profession is its universal languages.(to computers and other engineers haha) Also, by creating a great product, I believe it is helping others to have a more convenient life. Well, sometimes I doubt if I really can be an excellent engineer because it seems that I don’t fit into most of “stereotypes” of engineers. However, deep in my heart, I know that all of us are uniquely created and definitely there is a right position for each of us.
My friends describe me as an out-going girl. I would say I am open-minded but not way too talkative haha! It is more important for me to listen to a friend who is willing to share with me his/her life. We always learn something from others, doesn't it? The most interesting club/organization which I have been participated in is Toastmasters International. For those who haven't heard about this, it's kind of a public speaking training organization (non-profit!). From that experience, I gained more confidence in speaking in front of a group of people and had better techniques for organizing what I want to say! Also, listening to others' speeches is always a great pleasure. Any talk from club members contains part of their life. I am very thankful to be the audience and learn from them.
Moreover, I enjoy outdoor activities! Although I won't say that I am good at a specific sport, I would love to participate in and if possible, keep what interests me as a habit or my regular workout! I can swim/play basketball/roller skating/play broomball/dance (beginner in ballroom dancing).
I am still too young to talk more about myself. Now it is time to step out my comfort zone and meet more people from every walk of life!
PHILOSOPHY
- We touch something deep in our soul when we leave the land of the familiar.
