Why I am available as a mentor for the MCI Mentoring Program

As a mentor for the MCI mentoring program, I am available because I believe an outside perspective can often provide valuable insights. Studying should be enjoyable, and while the MCI may be challenging, it's just one part of life. Sometimes, it's helpful to take a step back and see things from a different angle, and I aim to assist students in doing just that.

My wisdom/my motto

My motto is: "Once is a mistake, twice is jazz." These words remind me that mistakes and setbacks are inevitable, but they also present opportunities to be creative and find new paths. Every mistake is a lesson that helps us improve and reach our full potential.

When I look back at my time at MCI...

Looking back on my time at MCI, I see it as a period of personal and professional growth, laying a solid foundation for my current endeavors. Through my studies at MCI, I not only acquired valuable academic knowledge but also developed practical skills that benefit me daily in my work. The opportunity to study abroad for a semester in America and spend a year in Taiwan as part of my Master's program further enriched this experience and opened up new perspectives for me.
