ABOUT ME
A story maker and collector.
I moved to Mountain View in this August and working on preparations for examinations. I used to be a headhunter in Shanghai for 5 years, focusing on the financial, high-tech, and real estate industry. I like meeting with all kinds of people throughout the world, to learn about their work life and help them develop a better career.
I am full of curiosity about the world, I love to share, and dream to make something different.
PHILOSOPHY
love, live and give.

Have ability to solve the pain in love.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to share!
I can teach you to speak Chinese, use popular Chinese Apps, cook Chinese food, and travel tips about Shanghai. And if you wanna develop your career or business in China, maybe I can share my idea and professional skills.
I am interested in languages, cooking, and details about the way you live and work. Anything you wanna share. ( A Portuguese CSer taught me how to bargain )
It will be my pleasure to explore the high-tech center of this planet together.
