Fun Facts

I was born in Shanghai, China, yet I have only been to less than 5 Chinese cities other than Shanghai throughout my entire first 18 years of living (until I left China for the US).

I am very interested in history and geopolitics, which is also why I love playing grand strategy games such as Europa Universalis IV, Crusader Kings III, Hearts of Iron IV, and Stellaris.

I also enjoy a wide variety of manga, anime, and visual novels. Thanks to this hobby, I became passionate about the Japanese language and culture, making me a trilingual (in Chinese, English, and Japanese).
