As a student, I studied basic medical science and clinical knowledge in school. What defines me from other Taiwanese medical students is that I took the time to develop my social skills with people of different majors, interests, and backgrounds. Integrating medical knowledge with communications has helped me greatly in the workplace and also in various points in life where I needed to close the deal.

    • Report For Taiwan

      May 2014 - now
      Co-founder

      As a co-founder I experienced the beginnings of this team as an NGO-like 60+ people group, the grueling process of downsizing for efficiency, and finally taking the next step by turning into a startup. Through this position, I continue to learn how to best utilize my members and also take harsh setbacks and criticism. The kinks of a startup is that there is always a silver lining around the cloud, so keeping a positive and persistent mindset proves vital in making things work out under inadequate resources.As an outsider looking in, I found the process of fact-checking highly similar to those of evidence-based medicine. Good journalism comes from using neutral investigation procedures before you make a conclusion on the facts. Report For Taiwan is a youthful news team that intends to focus on culture, education, and medicine. Its long-term goals involve its establishment as a trustworthy news source, motivation for Taiwan's progress into a more developed country, and a place where creativity can mesh with basic principles of journalism.
