In this episode, I dive deep with one of my great college friends to understand more of his life and what he was passionate about. From leaning into his Taiwanese culture to having a passion for teaching, Daniel always wanted to help everyone around him be better. As we unpack our realizations of understanding we came from a privileged life, we also understand the amount of hard work we got to be where we are. You’ll also hear about our great college memories and how the pandemic affected us both negatively and positively. Also, have you ever wondered what it’s like to be in a lion dance costume?! Daniel gives the major exclusive of one the biggest traditions of Lunar New Year.
