Why did you choose to come to Penn State? I want to experience new culture and make friends with people from all over the world. In addition, I want to challenge myself with new tasks and gain as much personal growth as possible.

What has been your best memory as an engineering student? I guess that is when I finished my first project with EE 210. It is amazing that I can also create something that can really benefit our life

What advice would you give a first-year engineer? Open your mind and do more than just the homework. Create instead of repeating other people's ideas.

What do you plan to do after graduation? Continue in graduate education and become a good engineer. I want to help all the people in this world, and the most direct way is to raise the rate of production and reduce the cost of life. These goals are going to be realized with creative engineering products.

What has been your best experience outside of engineering at Penn State? love my chinese connection club and share my culture experience with my friends around me.
