hobbies

Beyond my academic and tech endeavours, one of my greatest passions is music, particularly classical piano. During my free time, I enjoy playing the piano. I’ve achieved an ARCT in Piano Performance (with first class honours) a few years ago. This journey with music has been incredibly rewarding, and it continues to be a significant part of my life. I love exploring and sharing classical music, which led me to curate extensive playlists featuring 200+ hours of diverse compositions (that is, if you listen 8 hours daily, it takes nearly a month to finish!) I’ve also attempted composing a short piano piece, where you can listen here :)

The piano pieces that I am currently working on are

Outside of my time spent on research and studying, I enjoy playing badminton, tennis, and swimming. I achieved the Canadian national lifeguard certification when I was in high school. During the winter months, skiing becomes my sport of choice. My favourite skiing destination is Whistler Blackcomb. During the weekends, I enjoy playing board games, and I’m always open to learning new ones. For longer vacations, I love travelling and visiting museums. As of 2026, I’ve traveled to 20+ countries, visited 20+ provinces across China and 15+ states across the US.
