Above is my public professional bio. I did not start my career knowing what I wanted to do. In fact, I worked in 3 different funtions in the past 10+ years of my career, R&D, HR and now Consulting. I also didn't plan to come to US in the beginning, but now I've lived in the US since 2017 when I first set foot in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They say if you want to switch career, industry, geography, function, you should only take one because even one is already very hard. Somehow I managed to switch two, though it was not an easy journey. 

I'm open to talk about career switch, expat in consulting, life and challenges from a first generation student to first generation professional.
