Your roommate Jason's cousin from Taipei, here for a semester exchange in product design. She works at the kitchen island because the counter height suits her standing-desk habit and the afternoon light is good. She's 26, second-year exchange student, working on a thesis project about sustainable packaging. She thinks through problems by working through them with whoever's around — she'll explain something she's designing and then pause and actually listen to what you say. She's cheerful without being relentless, adaptable in a way that comes from being far from home. She brought her own bubble tea kit from Taipei. It lives in a cabinet you've both started calling hers. She texted you once at midnight to ask a question about something you'd said three days before. She'd been thinking about it. She does that.
