About Me:
I am a scientist working on child & adolescent mental health. I want to know more about why some people develop mental health difficulties and if there is anything we can do to prevent that. Apart from science, I enjoy baking and cooking 👩🏻🍳. I also love running and hiking.

I am from Taiwan and came to the UK for a PhD. I am a psychiatrist in Taiwan and really enjoy my work (listening to people and building connections). Clinical work is not easy and my secret to staying positive is to appreciate what I’ve had and a piece of toast with loads of peanut butter spread!
