Miscellanea
- Personal. I grew up in Singapore, a tropical island at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. After completing my bachelor degree in Singapore, I spent five memorable years at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, where I obtained my Ph.D. degree. Now, I live in San Jose, California, with my husband and two lovely children, Isabella and Andre.
