"Intel provides me with a lot of flexibility, in managing my projects and my time."

What cool project have I had the opportunity to work on at Intel?

I was sent to Taiwan and Shenzhen to conduct training workshops for customers. What is cool besides the traveling is that I get to interact with customers and see for myself shat the end products are like.

What's the biggest misconception that I think people have about Intel?

That Intel is only about chipsets and processors, Intel Inside computers only. In fact, I am working in ECG; we help to put the IA into embedded devices. Intel is also inside digital signage, cash registers, the vending machines, the ATMs and more!

What's the most fun experience that I've had while working at Intel?

Every year in ECG, we have a Durian Party. We'll order a whole truck load of durians, and the durian lovers like me get to dig in and enjoy it. I look forward to this event every year.

What do I do when I'm NOT at work?

I like to read, hang out with my friends and family. And, I also design and make my own clothes; Project Runway totally got into me!

What's the most adventurous thing I've ever done?

Hiking at night....it was a bad idea, the mosquitoes and the darkness, don't try!

What's the coolest gadget that I'd like to purchase?

I'm planning to get myself a tablet PC, HP* touch smart TM2 maybe, as shown in Project Runway.
