About Me

Hi I'm Sophie, I'm a masters student in Paris, I'm have a pretty packed schedule but hope to explore some interesting places in my free time :)

About me:
- I'm Singaporean but my hometown is Chengdu, China - the land of giant pandas and spicy Szechuan food.
- I did my undergrad in Melbourne and then worked in the tech industry, first at Google in Sydney, and then at various bay area start ups in the SF Bay area.
- I chose Europe for my masters because I was curious about living here. I'm doing a double degree that allows me to study in two countries. My first year was Enschede in the Netherlands and I thoroughly enjoyed it :)

I'm easy going, chill and considerate. I love making new friends and enjoy sharing experiences.

Interests

Exploring new places and trying out new things. Some of my favorite novel experiences: scuba diving in the great barrier reef, driving NASCAR in Vegas, and some other stuff I probably can't write here :P

I went back to school because I was interested in the area of mixed realities and brain computer interfacing . In general, I'm interested in technology, yoga and meditation, dance, sustainable living, music, language learning, consciousness
