SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS
Being a first-generation Asian-American who grew up in Texas and is now enjoying California, I
am no stranger to adaptation and find that I thrive in challenging environments. My personal
mission is to “contribute work of great significance.” My ultimate goal is to work for and/or
direct a nonprofit charitable organization. For me, hours fly by when doing work I love. I aspire
to collaborate, contribute and learn from a talented team that impacts the world.
