Most memorable performance:
I would say the Fundraising Theatre Gala Show in 2018 for the Arts with the Disabled Association (ADA) back in Hong Kong was the most meaningful and memorable performance I did. I was the Assistant Stage Manager and helped out with all the rehearsal practices. Seeing the artists with disabilities who dedicated time and efforts to the performance made me touched and to appreciate how arts can empower people to challenge themselves and push beyond limits.
Something we wouldn't know if you didn't tell us:
I have strong interests on a lot of fields, for example, architecture in Chicago and its history, philosophy, films, and analog film photography.
