The name is Jiayan (嘉衍), pronounced as “jah-yen”. Some people know me by my English name “Vicky” but I consider that name way too pointy for me, so I don’t use it anymore except when I’m at the Starbuck.
I enjoy indoor activities; I like making crochet crafts, 2D games (I vomit at 3D ones), books (esp. during internet shutdowns and on London tubes), piano, and wife-murder documentaries. I also enjoy some outdoor ones; I like to hike.
Without anything more to write in this section, here are some books I’ve been reading recently outside of my studies.
The World After Gaza by Pankaj Mishra
Love Machines: How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming Our Relationships by James Muldoon
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami
Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out (生死疲劳) by Mo Yan
King Solomon's Ring by Konrad Lorenz
I’m always happy to grab a coffee and chat about anything, just email or LinkedIn me. And since I’m graduating, I’m extra extra happy if we can talk about potential job openings :3
