I coordinate bilingual education programs, improve workflows, and build practical technical systems.
What I'm looking for
At Washington Bilingual Elementary School in Taichung, I manage daily operations across multiple classes, coordinate curriculum and schedules, and create standardized resources for consistent instruction. I also coordinated cross-grade social-emotional learning activities for 75+ students and was awarded 2025's Most Improved Teacher.
Previously, I improved material access workflows and mentored new staff at Neurolink English Academy. Across education, operations, and administrative support roles, I've used bilingual Chinese-English communication to support interoffice translation, customer relationships, online storefronts, logistics, and documentation.
I'm continuing to build technical skills through an independent Synology NAS project, including network configuration, router management, data organization, troubleshooting, user management, and performance optimization.
