CURRENT MISSION

Meet up with CSers in Atlanta

ABOUT ME

I have to travel at least a few times a year, otherwise I'll go crazy! I've mostly stayed within the States; I made my first international trip in August 2010 to Taiwan. Since I mostly drive when I'm in Atlanta, I like to walk wherever I travel. There's nothing like experiencing a city using your own two feet.

Outside of work, I volunteer with an Asian-American non-profit. There are two things everyone should do in life: volunteer and work a stint in retail. Both experiences are eye-opening and humbling. I like eating out family-style with friends; I also enjoy eating in potluck-style. I LOVE to eat and try out different cuisines.

PHILOSOPHY

"As long as you understand that you find happiness through family, friends and love, then money is just a nice bonus." -Anonymous

It never hurts to ask.
Change comes from within.
