She wants to apply what she learns from data analysis to the research of disability areas.
She enjoys doing yoga when she has the time. She also enjoys drinking Green Tea Frappuccino at Starbucks. She has traveled around the U.S. and the world. She has half of a year exchange experience at University College Cork in Ireland as a graduate student from China. It was the first time she got to know other people with disabilities, and she saw a big difference in how people with disabilities are treated.
