1. 您如何定義成功？你會如何達到你所定義的成功？
我認為成功的定義是努力做事和堅持所得出的成果。對我來說，成功最重要的因素是毅力和決心。每當做事時，我會努力認識自己的不足，主動找方法讓自己變好。
2. 生活中保持動力的方法？
家人和朋友是我的最大動力。他們是我的最大後盾，我做的每個決定他們都無條件支持我，所以為了他們我會一直堅持。
3. 如果有機會成立一個慈善機構，你會關注甚麼議題？
我會成立一個為學生提供精神輔導的慈善機構。現今社會，學生從學校、社交圈子和社交平台中可能受到無形壓力。這些壓力可以造成焦慮。我覺得我們應該在這方面提升大眾的認知，幫助有需要的年青人。
4. 有甚麼華裔文化傳統是你特別珍視的？為甚麼？
每年農曆新年，媽媽和姨姨都會做一些傳統食物帶去探望我的婆婆。所以我非常珍惜農曆新年，因為可以與家人相處和品嚐美味的食物。
5. 有哪一項家庭傳統，您會想傳承給子女？
我會將感激當下和尊重長輩的傳統傳承給子女。因為這些傳統觀念正面地影響了我，我覺得傳承這些統傳會給子女帶來一樣的快樂。
1. How do you define success? How would you achieve the success you have defined?
I define success through the amount of hard work and dedication applied and the outcome of these efforts. The most important factor to achieve this success is perseverance and determination. I achieve this success by recognizing the areas that are lacking and taking initiative to find ways on how to improve myself or the process.
2. How do you stay motivated and inspired in your daily life?
I am inspired and motivated by my friends and family. They are extremely supportive of my choices and are always willing to lend a hand when needed, thus it is my obligation to give everything my best go.
3. If you had the opportunity to establish a charitable organization, what issue would you focus on?
I would establish a charitable organization that focuses on mental health and wellness of students. With the pressures of school, family, and social media, young adults are more susceptible to developing mental illnesses. I believe there should be more awareness raised on this issue and those who are under duress should be able to seek the help they need.
4. What Chinese cultural traditions do you particularly cherish? Why?
I particularly cherish Chinese New Year celebrations. Every year, my mom and aunt would cook traditional dishes, and we would all go to my grandmother’s house to eat dinner and spend time with her.
5. Any family traditions that you would like to pass on to your next generation?
I would like to pass on gratitude and respect for our elderly as they brought us here, contributing and allowing us to become who we can be.
6. 10 歲時的你對參選華姐有甚麼想法？
10歲時的我從未想過現在的我會參選華姐。小時候我記得收看華姐選舉的時候，想起 「這些大姐姐在舞台上穿着閃閃的衣服都非常漂亮，她們又跳舞，又唱歌，又玩樂器，真的好像現實生活中的偶像！」從未想過現在的我將會成為其中一個大姐姐。我希望我可以像小時候電視中的華姐一樣，從電視中給像我小時候一樣的小女孩帶來追求夢想的希望。
7. 哪些活動 (例如：聽歌、閱 讀) 能讓你平靜下來？
跟朋友在電話通話可以令我放鬆自己，有時候我會跟他們打遊戲，有時候我們會聊天，有時候我們在通話中一起聽音樂。當我聽到他們的聲音而知道有人在電話另一邊的時候，會令我非常安心。
8. 你認為自己是「E人」 (外向的人) 還是「I人」 (內向的人)？請舉一例子。
在認識新人的時候，我認為我自己是一個內向的人。在一個充滿陌生人的房間裏，我不會主動跟別人談話，我會先觀察別人，看看他們的反應才判斷如何主動接觸他們。
9. 如果您生活在一部迪士尼電影中，您會選擇哪一部？
如果我可以生活在一部迪士尼電影中，我會選擇 “Big Hero 6” 。電影中的故事描述一群充滿美好未來的年輕學生，將他們的長處，各自設計屬於自己的超人服裝。電影裏的主角設計了一隻又大又可愛的機械人。擁有工程師背景的我非常享受超級英雄系列的電影，這套迪士尼電影也讓我想起了自己。
10. 如果你是一件藝術品，你認為你會以甚麼形式或風格呈現？
如果我是一件藝術品，我會選擇成為一首詩。從書中、歌曲中和日常生活對話中都可以找到詩曲。它是一樣很漂亮的東西，不只是整體帶來的意思，在不同句子中也可以代表着不同的意思。作者用的字句可以控制讀者的情感。它是一樣可以被寫在紙上，又可以給每一位讀者帶來立體感、不同看法及情感的東西。
6. What would your 10-year-old self-think about you participating in the Miss Chinese Toronto pageant?
My 10-year-old self would not believe it. I remember watching this pageant growing up and thinking “wow, these girls are so pretty in the bright lights and sparkly dresses. They can dance, sing, play instruments; they’re like a real-life idol.” I never thought that I would be one of those girls today. My only wish is to be just as impactful and influential to young girls as they were to me.
7. What activities, such as listening to music or reading, help you feel calm and relaxed?
Talking to my friends on a voice call helps me to relax. Sometimes we play video games together, sometimes we just talk about random things, sometimes we sit in silence with music playing in the background. Hearing their voices and knowing that someone is there, to me, is very comforting.
8. Do you consider yourself an extrovert or an introvert? Please provide an example.
I consider myself an introvert, especially when it comes to meeting new people. If I was placed in a room full of strangers, I tend to be someone who keeps to themselves and observes others first to see how to react and approach them.
9. If you could live in a Disney movie, which one would you choose?
I would choose to live in “Big Hero 6”. The movie highlights bright, young students that design a big, cute robot as well as their own super-suits to save the world. This movie speaks to me because of my own engineering background and because of the Asian representation in Disney movies, as well as I enjoy the superhero genre of movies.
10. If you were a piece of art, what form or style do you think you would take? Why?
A form of art that I would want to take after would be poetry. Poetry can be found in books, songs, and everyday conversation. Poetry is beautiful not only because of the message it delivers, but because the choice of words determines how strong and touching the message can be. It uses 2D letters on a page to create vivid imagery and move emotions, and it is up to the reader/listen to determine how to perceive it.
