About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Carrying on a safe and relaxing vacation in the States

ABOUT ME

I am a graduate student studying digital contents and technologies. Open minded and down to earth, sometimes humorous. Film nerd and type nerd. I just think nerd people (with unique interests, knowledge and professions) are extraordinarily attractive.

PHILOSOPHY

"Nothing conclusive has yet taken place in the world, the ultimate word of the world and about the world has not yet been spoken, the world is open and free, everything is still in the future and will always be in the future. "

-Bakhtin

that is exactly the reason why I love stories so much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was the Director of Events of World Model United Nations 2010, Taipei. May be you had attend the social events I organized :P Tell me how you think about them!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Chinese, my first language, of course. And we can talk about Chinese thought and literature which were my majors at college time, especially you have the knowledge on western philosophy or literature.

And I am currently working for justfont, a start up business based in Taipei, Taiwan. Justfont is the first Chinese web font service of Great China region. This is exactly the experience that inspired my interest on start up business and typography. I am looking forward hosts/guests who are interested in these fields.

And of course, when it comes to film or film making, there will be endless topics for us to be crazy for.
