Hello and welcome to my website! I am Sara Siye Liu, student @NYU Stern, insurtech startup founder, tech enthusiast, Singaporean. I believe in creating a better future by harnessing the power of technology into business. One cannot do without the other.
On this blog, I will mainly post three types of content:
- Personal projects (in Projects)
- Reflection on world affairs (in Blogs)
- Science news (coming Fall 2020)
I want this blog to document the journey I take to find different portals, whether it be in science or in tech. There are so many things I want to learn, explore. I am still not sure what I want to specialize after graudation because everything seems interesting!
I am a student
I study Business (Finance) + CS at NYU. I love reading, hoarding books.
I am an entrepreneur
I started my first e-commerce store in Singapore while I was 15. Organizing inventory, raising cash from my mom as the sole investor, figuring out a way to receive payment when I didn’t have a bank account thus concealing cash in envelope were ways I hacked my way to make business profitable.
This entreprenerial spirit has been with me forever!
I then went on to participate in several startup pitching challenges (e.g semi-finalist for NYU 300K entrepreneur challenge, Top 10 U.S. National Finalist for L’Oreal brandstorm) Fun, rewarding and exhilaring experience everytime I get to create, re-imagine and put to work some of me and my friends’ ideas!
I am a tech enthusiast.
I will show you what I can do in the project folder.
