Chuyi Xiao (Igly)

My name is Chuyi Xiao (you can call me Xiao) and I'm from China. This is my first semester in the MSIS (Master Science of Information System) program. I finished my bachelors at the Massey University (New Zealand) in Finance and got my first master degree at the University of Utah also in Finance. My career adviser in MSF (Master Science of Finance) introduced me MSIS program and the idea of combining computer science with business really interested me.

While I was waiting for the admission letter in China, I went to the most well-known Chinese IT education institute to study Java for six months so that I would be fully prepared for the new degree since I'm really interested in the business analytic and software system and I want choose courses from these two fields. After 6-month Java study, I finished a group project named CRM (customer relationship management) with three other group members using Java framework.

I'm excited to learn new techniques, changing views from finance to IT world is challenging but fun ;)
