CURRENT MISSION

Being an interesting person who has stories to tell.

EXPERIENCES

My friends usually describe me as a driven, open-minded, and nice person who is trying to experience the world and make a difference.

In 2013 I gave up the admission to grad school and decided to travel, and then I spent almost half a year traveling to 16 countries in four different continents, and I also got one semester’s credits from University of Virginia.

After that I went back to China, and worked in Beijing for three years. In 2017 I came to Seattle to attend the grad school. In 2018 I’m graduating with a master's degree from University of Washington! In the near future I will work in tech.

PHILOSOPHY

Travel is about story, adventure, secrets, people in between. And most importantly, treasure whatever that means for that trip.
