Hey there, fellow tech enthusiast! 🌟 I’m absolutely thrilled to share a little slice of my journey with you. So, grab your favorite beverage ( I love matcha lattes ), and let’s dive in! 🌟

Background and Education: I grew up in the Midwest and studied at Northwestern University (Go Wildcats!) for my Bachelors in Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences and my Masters in Computer Engineering! I also had the amazing opportunity to complete half of my masters at ETH Zurich and spend a semester in Switzerland! Ask me anything about studying abroad for undergrad or graduate programs and I'd love to share my experiences.

Fast-forward to today—I’m currently a Product Manager at Microsoft! 🚀 As a PM, I have the amazing opportunity to work with everyone from Data Scientists to Marketing to Engineering. I have a very "true" Product Manager role so I am very lucky to be able to dive into various aspects of the product lifecycle when shipping and building products.

I am also a big advocate of diversity and inclusion as the Co-Chair of my organization's Asians ERG. In my role, I get to build connections and create a community where individuals uplift one another and celebrate the rich threads of their own cultures 🌠

Remember: You’re not alone in this quest. Whether you’re considering a career pivot or just want to talk Product, I’m here, cheering you on. 🌟✨

Now, what’s your story? What pixels light up your world? Let’s chat! 😊
