Summary

I'm currently a Ph.D. candidate in Organizational Leadership at Northwest University in Kirkland, WA. I also have two Master's degrees in Music Performance and Music Composition from Campbellsville University in Campbellsville, KY. Although I did not attend one of the top 30 universities in the US, I am very familiar with the US educational system in higher education, and I've made all the efforts to start my educational journey in the US.

My experiences establishing my startup company in Beijing, China, have equipped me with strong project management and organizational skills. The company organized a concert that combined music appreciation and family education, showcasing my original works based on the "Six-Dimensional Analysis Method” for music appreciation.

I consider myself a goal-oriented strategic leader and empathetic communicator. I possess a robust drive, openness, and eagerness to tackle new challenges, and I am a lifelong and fast learner.
