I'm a current nursing student in Philadelphia, used to work in public health!
In my free time, I'm volunteering as a labor support person (doula), advocating for immigrant rights, practicing acroyoga/acrobatics, and working at my local rock climbing gym.
I love to travel and hope to work abroad one day; there's not a place in the world I wouldn't go if you bought me a plane ticket :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Born in Taiwan, raised in Los Angeles, worked in New York City, and now living in Philadelphia, I am always happy to share about American culture through the eyes of an immigrant.
I would love to chat over a meal/drinks, but also understand if you don't have the time to hang out!
