I am a new soul living in wonderful world, trying to discover more and more about this world. I have already gained my degree in China as Electronic Engineering. Five years ago, I tried to change my major from Education Technology and succeeded as you can see. It is tough to learn all the knowledge from a different major by myself. However, I am good at learning things new in a short period and also open minded to accept help from other people such as classmate and teacher. Communicating and leadership are all derived from my nature of outgoing and talkative. During the university, I led a team to work on a smart car and facial recognition program and made some innovation about that program. Now in the campus of Northeastern University, I am prepare myself as an software engineering who is in the intersection of software and hardware(as my bachelor degree ). In the future, I want to lead a team to design exciting products with innovation such as Tesla and Apple. Curiosity and Creativity drive me from Beijing to Boston and would keep encourage me to think different.
