What I Do I test, document, and deploy a (Telecom) network that will be used by many people for daily communication needs.
Why Engineering? Besides providing a comfortable life, I like the technical challenge that it brings.
School Days McNeese State University in Lake Charles, LA Bachelor of Science - Electrical Engineering
My Day At Work Go to the Lab to test and verify the design that I developed. Work with people so the design I developed is deployed properly in the network.
Proud Moments Being able to work for the same company since graduating from college and continue to be challenged.
Challenges Being Asian and a woman since people have certain expectations especially in this industry. I'm also an introvert so I had to keep pushing to be heard and recognized. Eventually, I proved that I don't have to be the loudest in the room or have the answers to all the problems to have an impact.
My Family I come from a family of 6: Dad, Mom, and four girls (me being the youngest). My family immigrated to the US when I was in high school. Parents instilled to us the importance of education and made sure that we all graduated with college degrees. I hope to one day be able to say that my daughter has a college degree.
Dreams and Goals My immediate plans are to successfully deploy a new network and go on fun family adventures. In the future, I'd like to see my daughter happily living the best life ever while I run a small business in the Philippines with my husband.
Hobbies I like to cook (Filipino, American, Mexican, Cajun) and meld the different flavors and techniques. I also like to travel and see different parts of the world and learn different cultures.
