Extracurricular & Leadership
- Epoch Foundation During my undergraduate years, I participated in non-profit organizations in Taiwan. I enjoyed my time at Epoch Foundation, where I got to explore the exciting intersection between cutting-edge research at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and real-world industry needs in Taiwan. As an MIT–Taiwan Industrial Cooperation Research Intern, I followed updates from MIT CSAIL and MIT-ILP, and helped keep 30+ Taiwanese companies in the loop with relevant insights and collaboration opportunities. It was a great chance to bridge research and industry, and to get a behind-the-scenes look at how global innovation partnerships take shape.
- NTUEE+ NTUEE+ is part of NTUEE Student Association, hosting overseas alumni connection services with undergraduate students. I was a co-director of the organization during 2022-2023.
Writing
I enjoy writing on my Medium for personal thoughts, experiences, and reading notes. Some articles were written in Mandarin.
Personal Life
Born and raised in Taiwan, where high mountains are dense throughout the island, I enjoy trekking and hiking.
