About Me

I am currently a student of the Class of 2018 in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. Although I am not completely sure of what I want to major in, I am planning to major in Biomedical Engineering right now.

Biography

I was born in China in the year 1997 and moved to Raleigh, North Carolina at age 3. After attending preschool in North Carolina, my family moved to Miami, Florida, where I attended elementary school. In the second grade, I began to play the violin. And although I will never reach the level of professional violinists, I never plan to stop playing the violin. At the beginning of the sixth grade, my family then moved to Fayetteville, North Carolina where they have been living ever since. There, I attended middle school and graduated from Terry Sanford High School. Now, I attend Duke University, the best university ever known to any creature in the universe.

Hobbies

• I play the violin.
• I like working with computers, including working with both hardware and software.
• I enjoy watching movies, especially classics such as: Forrest Gump and Anchorman.
