About Me

Hello!

My name is Lynne and I have a twin sister named Jenny and we were born in China. After immigrating to the USA in 2000, we lived happily together with our parents in a red house in Ohio...until 2011 when we embarked on our separate college adventures.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Duke University studying BME and pre-medicine; Jenny is studying computer science at Carnegie Mellon University (but they are all "crazies" there, if you ask me).

I like doing all sorts of things. Such as playing piano, violin, making jewelry and crafts, painting, drawing, ice skating, playing tennis, styling hair...and lots more. :)

I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese.

Yay!

Name Pronounciation

Not very difficult, really...it just sounds like "lin". Well, it's one syllable...so stress the one and only syllable. We don't really stress here on my page. =P (On a side note, Lin is my legal name. My parents were creative and decided to give me an "American" name that sounds exactly like my Chinese name.)

I think I do look like a "Lynne".

Some people are creative and call me "lin-ee" because my name is spelled with an -e on the end.

My Favorite Demonstration

The 3-D Surface Plot one of course! Why? Because it looks awesome and it is totally not extremely difficult to produce in matlab. Better than trying to fold them out of paper. Origami is still cool though.
