My name Xuexing was given to me by my mother. It consists of two characters in the Chinese Language. The first "Xue" is 学 meaning learning. The second "xing" is 兴 which contains meanings of happiness and prosperity. Together my name means "Happy Learning" or "Prosperous Student". The English pronounciation of my name is (sue-sing). I was born and raised in the South Bay of California as the son of two immigrants from China and Vietnam. When I'm not researching I find myself baking, traveling, or playing with my pets.
