Hi there,

​My Background

I am a woman Asian migrant based in Aotearoa New Zealand from Taiwan. I moved with my parents and sister to live in the Waikato region in New Zealand about 3 decades ago.

 

I enjoy various roles such as being an caring new mother to our son, an administrator at work, a design student, loving wife and daughter, enthusiastic friend, and willing community volunteer.

​

​What I Do

I am currently employed at a non-profit social services agency.​ I am also a sole trader working on web design and admin support. Recently I am training to become a designer.

​

My Offers

I am planning to offer digital products for sale. I also hope to share my system and processes so that you could increase productivity, stay organised, and enjoy creativity as part of your wellbeing practice.

​

Challenges I Face

Being a migrant is stressful and I have felt unable to communicate, isolated and lacked a sense of belonging to the point of having mental health crises in my teens. ​My educational background was in biochemical engineering but​ in my twenties I wasn't sure what profession I wanted to go into. After graduating from a Masters Degree I struggled for years, it was hard to find stable employment. I returned to study design because I like to be creative. Still something was missing. A mentor of mine suggested I reach out for volunteer opportunities.

​​

My Professional Journey

​I began as a receptionist volunteer on Tuesday afternoons. The transferable skills from my engineering training allowed me to excel at the admin tasks and I was hired as paid employee after a trial period. Since then other mentors have guided me to participate in volunteering for various non-profit committees. After at least 5 years in my various community service roles I have become a Justice of the Peace.

​​

My Core Values

I love my family and I am passionate about caring for ourselves so we flourish and thrive in the communities we belong to.

​​

My Point of Difference

I have encountered a myriad of challenges during difficult turning points in my life. Some struggles I faced are mental health related so my focus area to work on are to do with wellbeing. Specifically living with bipolar disorder, being a creative person and staying well.

​

My Commitment to You

In this website you will find me sharing my system and processes for productivity, organisation and creativity to find balance and stay well. I am continuously a work in progress and I promise to be an authentic voice sharing my vulnerabilities.​
