About
Greetings and salutations with abundant genuflections.
En faisant beaucoup du révérence, j'ai le grand honneur de vous transmettre des compliments et salutations.
我给您们致意而祝安。
I am a current undergraduate student at Wilmington University in Wilmington, Delaware, USA, studying for a Bachelor's of Science in Game Design and Development, as well as a certificate in 3D Digital Media. Before I could properly speak or write, I have been blessed -- or cursed -- with an over-active, ever-active imagination, and a will to translate my imaginings into a form that other people can enjoy. It is this blessing or curse that led me to my study of computer game development, and to my interest in languages, in books, and in biographies. This is what led me to write my first novel at the age of 12, and to win a graphic novel writing/art contest at the age of 15. I strive to harness imagination and creativity to leave a lasting, worthwhile impact on the world -- to bring happiness in a world that can break the strongest of us all.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
Ultimately, I am studying to become a creative director in computer games and character design.
- Graduate school interests
I have no current desire to pursue graduate studies. Rather, my ambition after obtaining an undergraduate degree is to pursue Entrepreneurship, Advocacy, and Philanthropy (in that order).
- Outside the classroom
I am a daily reader, focusing predominantly on business, biographies, and autobiographies -- from popular culture to luxury brands, to the multifaceted world of industry and business. I have recently read the (auto)biographies of ... luxury doyennes Coco Chanel and Jeanne Lanvin, Gucci bride Jenny Gucci, glamor icon Amanda Lepore, Old Hollywood legend Gene Tierney, con artists Clifford Irving and Frank Abagnale ... and the Barbie doll, and the multitalented genius Howard Hughes.
