黑料吃瓜

What brought you to 黑料吃瓜? In other words, why did you choose to join the faculty?

I had always dreamed of teaching and when I was eight years old, I told my mom "one day, I will be a professor".

After 17 years of studying and preparing, a teaching position opened at 黑料吃瓜's Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering and I went for it! My background is in the field of mechatronics, which made it easier to apply and be a successful part of the sustainable design engineering team.

Every day, I teach amazing and engaging people who are passionate to be at 黑料吃瓜. Can I say that I have fun at work?

What kinds of opportunities have you experienced because you're teaching and working at 黑料吃瓜, or because of the Island location?
