Yang Zhutian is highly inquisitive and motivated individual, yearning for a deeper understanding of everything she was taught. Never satisfied with merely skills but context, meaning, and methodology behind.
Her major Information Engineering and Media equipped her with a perspective, a toolset and a spirit. It is a perspective of viewing the human brain as a system, which perceives, processed and stores information. It is a toolset for using storytelling and multimedia to more effectively bridge the gap between information and understanding. It is a spirit of learning and trying agilely, failing and redirecting early, and valuing the only asset in her - the construction of her brain to maintain a clear, creative and content life as well as her harmonious relationship with others.
Her personality is as interesting as the way she looks when asking questions. She enjoys filmmaking, music recording and practicing yoga. However, the hobby that she enjoys the most is sharing with people: her notes and revision slide for every course she attended in university or online, the recommendation of visible and audibly content which she is excited about, and most importantly her energy, in ceaselessly discovering and experiencing this amazing world.
