I joined SheUp during Christmas vacation as an intern because I was deeply inspired by the SheUp leaders and the core pillars of SheUp. I felt really inspired and encouraged to step a bit more into the professional field, and I wanted to get more experience in what it is like to be an entrepreneur.

I am inspired by all the people who have the courage to be themselves, because that taught me a lot about self-acceptance and confidence. No matter what choices one chooses in one’s life, having the courage to be oneself and not conform to the overhwhelming norm is very powerful.

I feel encouraged when I read stories or listen to inspiring speeches about how people overcame their difficulties. Knowing about these stories expands my vision and encourages me to think outside of the box.

My favourite way to connect with people is to do some activity of mutual interest like playing a game of a sport. I also love to walk through the beautiful streets of Shanghai and have casual conversations.
