Yingda Shang

I was a student-athlete from middle school to senior year of undergraduate studies. The academic courses and daily practice always conflicted with each other. Through the years of trying to balance them, it taught me to be efficient when I was making plans and carrying out a plan. Also to be flexible when plans changed. 

When I was the vice-captain of the university basketball team, I learned how to be a leader. More than ten years of student-athlete life made me perseverant, punctual, and a team player. I believe hard work always pays off. Right now as a designer, my previous experiences are influencing my passion to design.
