Contrary to the stereotypical image of an Asian, I never really excelled in mathematics, but oddly enough I never felt ashamed of it. Instead, I've always enjoyed writing and editing my works whether I was in France or in English-speaking countries. Eventually my passion for words led the way for me to be consistently ranked on the honours' list. This was a quite a change for many Asian students in each of my respective schools and I'm proud to say that I led the change.

After graduating from university, while being employed in the field of editing, I was fortunate to have been asked to edit English research proposals from university professors and, U.N reports and governmental posters for a top-ranking university's geography department.

For as long as I can remember, empathy has been a virtue I've been holding onto dearly. It's an essential trait to make use of, especially in our respective society where social interactions are inevitable. Accordingly, I can say with confidence that empathizing with people and creating as well as maintaining a comfortable communication lane is one of my fortes.

I am planning to start my postgraduate studies at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) this coming September and it would be a great opportunity to be part of a team that strives to enlighten those whose main desire is to join a fine academic future.
