I might miss some of the important work but I am super proud of my work as the NP throughout 2021. I am an immigrant living in Ireland for only short 3 years and I want to thank Ireland and Galway for giving me opportunities to shine.


Apart from JCI, I am also studying very hard for a part-time master degree in technology management with the scholarship from the 30% club and working very hard at Baseworx to create world-class flexible workspace management software as well as maintain the operation of the Irish government National initiative connectedhubs.ie ???????? one of the highlights was, of course, being featured on national TV and talked about my
story of "Moving West".


I wish all the Past Presidents, Senators, members, and friends a happy new year and good health in 2022 and hopefully we can organize some big parties and gatherings in 2022 and see each other in person again very soon!
