Overview
About Me
Globe trotter and always the risk-taking one. I joined the CS community when I was in college and met so many fantastic people along the way!
At this point in life I'm a big fan of jazz, funk and soul music. Might be Nina Simone's top 1% Spotify listener this year ;) I started lindy hop a year ago and a bouncy tune always perks me up.
When I am not on my feet, I'm a big nerd and love hearing people's stories. I have this unhealthy habit lately of reading too much Lonely Planet before trips - but it's so worth it, you learn so much about the culture and history and it's probably the best you can do if you feel guilty about your consumeristic indulgences ;)
I speak four languages (english, canto, mandarin, spanish). Getting very rusty for my Spanish so always appreciate practices! Also attempting to learn Japanese and Portuguese.

Music, Movies, and Books
Current obsession is Nina Simone and all tunes funky and jazzy. Generally, avid fan of both slow pop with Coldplay and electronic with Sia. Medasin is my go-to for chill vibes.
Love Rick and Morty and Black Mirror (season 6 thoughts?). Also consume a healthy amount of Channel 4 shows like Travel Man.
Movie hands down for Everything, Everywhere, All at Once (nothing can beat that at the moment!). Also love Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom.
Books... currently trudging my way through Moby Dick! Also loved Catch-22 and Kafka's In the Penal Colony though that's not even a book hah. Am an unabashed non-fiction fan for many books on Economics/ Statistics.
