From being a musician of a symphony orchestra to a web developer.

Since I was a child, my parents focused on cultivating my music literacy. My father is a famous musician and my mother is a doctor. Yes, I am also talented, my ears are born with absolute hearing. I can tell the exact pitch with closed eyes when people press any key on the piano. It would make sense that music should be my future career, right?

Going to a foreign country to continue music studies

After high school, I was admitted to the Shanghai Conservatory of Music where I studied hard for 4 years to obtain a diploma. In the second week, after receiving the certificate, I decided to visit Vienna, the famous city of music in Austria, because I didn’t want to stay at home for a career under the cover of my parents like a child forever. So I packed my bags and boarded a plane.

In Vienna, I passed the entrance exams to get into a Master’s course. “Don’t be idle anyway and give it a try” I thought. I signed up and came to the examination room. The result was very pleasant, I didn’t speak a word of German but I was admitted. Yes, I was proud of myself.

The studying journey in Vienna allowed me to make many friends, speak German fluently, co-operate with orchestras, whom I often performed with abroad. It was around the time I was about to graduate, that I met my husband.

The world is sometimes so wonderful. On the night of our wedding, I had to perform in the world-famous Golden Hall in Vienna. It was so stressful that after our concert and dinner I fell asleep while walking.
