FOUNDER/DIRECTOR
CHIEF EDITOR
Emily Liao
Hello everyone, I’m Emily and I study at Wego High School. Imagination is what drives me into doing what I love. Me having so much energy and passion derives to the fact that creativity practically made me who I am. Also, debate is one of my favorite hobbies. By understanding international affairs through debate and seeing the importance of it resulted in this project – The Turning Point. From debate, I could see events from different perspectives and make comprehensive judgements rather than following my guts. Last but not least, I am glad that I have the chance to work on this project with my friend Vincent, who also shared this interest with me.
我是Emily,就讀薇閣中學;是個活潑好動,但內心細膩的人。我喜歡閱讀和思考,也喜歡想像;想過去和未來,傳統或創新。除此之外;我也很喜歡辯論活動,國際政治、外交情勢、全球議題等是最常接觸到的辯題,這也是我創辦「The Turning Point 翻轉點」的原因之一,因為從辯論活動中讓我瞭解到,原來從不同角度看事情,瞭解背後的形成原因,還原事件的全貌,不但能擴大視野,還能讓我們更客觀深刻地去思考,翻轉既定觀點。我非常開心能夠和我從小到大的好朋友,也是我的共同創辦人歐陽孝鈞一起創立 The Turning Point 翻轉點,有好夥伴一起努力的感覺,真的很棒!
