I am a dreamer. I am sentimental, not easily rattled and can be perceived as verbose. I am emotionally aware: I am aware of my feelings and how to express them. And I am self-conscious: I am sensitive about what others might be thinking about me. My choices are driven by a desire for success. I consider taking pleasure in life to guide a large part of what I do:I am highly motivated to enjoy life to its fullest. I am relatively unconcerned with tradition: I care more about making my own path than following what others have done.

I come from an immigrant family living off a single minimum wage salary. I was raised with the importance of hard work and perseverance to overcome adversity. Growing up in one bedroom apartments in the Silicon Valley allowed me to see the growth of computer technology, inspiring me to dedicate my life to the field of computer science and engineering. I'd like to inspire youth that grew up like me and show them a way into engineering.

I'm an artist, a composer, a musician, a film maker, a graphic designer, and an aspiring software developer. The right mix of art and science can create beautiful things.
