What would you like to learn next? What are your next career steps?

I believe my next module would be Human Resource Management. I have been thinking about my next career steps including building strong business connections in a professional way and I would also love to enter academic research in future, if possible.

Describe one thing that makes you feel a sense of accomplishment. Explain why.

I feel a sense of accomplishment when I get all my daily tasks done before going to bed at night. That makes me feel like I have had a productive day and that offers me great motivation to move forward with whatever I should do the next day.

What helps you to bounce back from setbacks?

Self-confidence and family/friend support are the primary motivators that help me stick to my plan no matter how many and how severe the setbacks I encounter.

What’s the best book you’ve ever read? Why did you like it?

I recently read the book “How You Say It: Why You Talk the Way You Do—And What It Says About You” by Katherine D. Kinzler. It provided a groundbreaking examination on how speeches may affect us based on our linguistic differences. It was such an interesting book to read and I truly enjoyed those awesome insights.

If you could live anywhere, where would you live? Why?

That would be my home country, China because I love my country and it could possibly provide everything I want in life.

Who is someone you consider a hero in your life? Why?

I think that person would be my mother. I truly admire my mother, who has made enormous sacrifices for the family and always places other people’s needs over hers. She is such an incredible and caring person.
