At the end of summer in 2018, I finished my last two courses for my Masters in Cyber Security: Cryptography and Big Data. Soon after, I received my diploma in the mail for a M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the NYU Tandon School of Engineering. This May, I had the pleasure of walking across the stage in the presence of my family to receive my handshake in NYU Tandon School of Engineering’s commencement ceremony.
Throughout my experience, I only occasionally celebrated my personal wins. I often hesitated to share, as there were so many moments when I feared…
A few days ago, my father found a short story that I had written for a school project when I was in the 2nd grade — my mother’s own path to computer science! I asked if I could please share her story, and she encouraged me to write about it.

My grandmother was an ophthalmologist. She performed cataract surgery on many farming families she encountered while biking across China in her…

If you’re reading this, you may have heard of the recent Cambridge Analytica Facebook scandal (with a complicated timeline of events) and a lot of talk from people deleting (or threatening to delete) their Facebook accounts using the #DeleteFacebook hashtag.
Listen up! Before you go clicking that delete account button on a whim here are three basic things you should consider: 1) If you delete your Facebook account, will you still use Instagram or Whatsapp (both owned by Facebook)? Are you signed into any accounts (such as Spotify or Netflix) through Facebook? 2) Even if you delete your account, your…
I moved to New York City after three spectacular years in Beijing, China. I had never lived in New York before, so settling in was an incredible adventure. I started working at an amazing non-profit called the New American Leaders, and co-founded a support community for friends like me who had returned from living in Beijing called “Beijing Club of New York” (We now have over 900 members!). A few months later, I was elected to the organizing board for the Asian American Journalists Association where I found joy contributing to a community of content creators. Through this community, I…

Research in psychology has demonstrated that the way we position our bodies can create emotional feedback effects that change our day-to-day experiences, as demonstrated in the Ted Talk by Amy Cuddy.
