MY PASSIONS

ACTINGI have over 5 years of acting experience. I avidly pursue roles in the film industry, and audition constantly. I love the freedom acting gives me to experience different emotions and be spontaneous. Through acting, I have also made friends from all over the world, each with unique and different backgrounds, which have enriched my perspectives in life.

DANCINGDancing has been a passion of mine since the age of 4. I have trained rigorously in Chinese ethnic dance for over a decade and grown up on stage with my family of beloved teachers and lifelong friends. Over 2,000 hours of training, 60 performances and leading the dance troupe have taught me discipline, commitment, and team-building skills. With dance, I tell stories through physical movements and facial expressions.

VIDEO EDITINGI am a self-taught video editor on TikTok with 166K followers. I love that video editing gives me a voice and the opportunity to share my views of the world through retelling stories in creative ways. To let my imaginations run free, I produce short videos that transform myself into wizards and Jedis. I also love collaborating on short videos with my brother and other video editor friends from around the world. What makes it more meaningful is that I can contribute back to the community by providing free tutorials and editing tools through YouTube and Instagram. 13.6K editors have used the resources I posted.

MUSICI come from a family with deep connections to classical music. Music has been an essential part of my life since I started playing piano at 4 and cello at 7. I enjoy playing music with my friends and family. Being a musician allows me a deeper understanding of melodies, rhythms, and tempos, making me a better dancer, actor, and video editor.

MY OTHER INTERESTS

ANTHROPOLOGY / HUMAN BIOLOGYI am fascinated by history, different cultures, human development, and human biology. After taking Human Anatomy and Infectious Diseases at school, I attended a Biological Anthropology summer course at UC Berkeley. It was challenging but super fun to learn about forensic application in anthropology. We analyzed my favorite TV show Bones and played forensic detective to analyze real crime scenes.

GYMNASTICS / TUMBLINGI love the challenge and the thrill of learning how to do an aerial or a front flip. Not only do I get to show off cool tricks, I find a lot of joy when I soar into the sky, forgetting everything around me and just focusing on the breeze in the air. I even got to use these skills for stage combat in a play I did!

SPECIAL EFFECTS MAKEUPAfter practicing stage makeup on the girls at my dance school over the years, I taught myself how to do special effects makeup. It is absolutely amazing when you can fool someone with some fake blood, tape, and a box of wax!

WHAT ELSE?At top of my bucket list are sky diving and participating in a Marvel project.I love reading, traveling, skiing, surfing, cheerleading, archery, stage combat, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, amusement parks, and I absolutely love boba tea.
