New friends, hi!

Hi. The best way to get to know me is to read my writing and then to say hi back!

Here are 10 conversation starters : 

  1. I published a children’s book with my family about a cute sea turtle named Terra. Terra is a refugee, just like my family!

  2. I write a Substack blog/newsletter where I discuss tech, psychology, joy, and more!

  3. I work as a Director of Product in e-commerce & I love my job. 

  4. I have been launching products since elementary school. When I have an idea, I just need to try!

  5. My little sister and I run an Etsy & Shopify store filled with fandom-based merchandise and digital art.

  6. Have you seen Sex Education? It's a really fun Netflix show with many scenes I can relate to! That's because I taught sex-ed to high schoolers.

  7. I also taught for-credit entrepreneurship classes at Wesleyan University. 

  8. I am passionate about helping my communities with their mental and emotional health, with a focus on joy.

  9. Using AI, I built a free Reframe bot to help everyone reframe negative thoughts!

  10. Why do I care so much? Life has been a journey! I am a refugee, I have lost many loved ones, and I developed a handicap in high school (better now!). Still, I choose to focus on spreading gratefulness and joy. I have learned quite a bit about mental health over the years and aim to help others through my writing, art, and/or tech.

This is from my last long distance trip to CDMX!  I hope I get to travel again soon!
