,"The cultural shock I felt between China and US was far greater than I expected."
That inspired her dream to use art to bridge the world,

 "I was born to a Chinese immigrant student family. My parents achieved their American Dream through hard work. I believe I can follow their footprints and fulfill my dream of my time, a dream that has to have faith in humanity, in true understandings and in true love!"
