Hi, my name is Welly Huang! I was born on September 27th, 1999. I graduated from the Department of Applied English of NTCUST, and am currently studying in the Department of Finance of NTUB. In my free time, I play games, read novels, and run my own YouTube channel. English and Japanese was my former major, but now my major is Finance. Currently, I am applying for the Fall 2021 undergraduate transfer to The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. I was raised in American Education System (kind of), and have yearned for a chance to enroll in the world's top universities.
