 About Me

I am a person who focuses on the detail and ask myself with high standard.  Sometimes it will cause the progress slow and cause some stress to me, but  I won't give up easily, so I can always get things done. 

I hope that joining the company, I can utilize my knowledge and experience of composites to collaborated with teams to do more things with high standards.
