Key Facts

Your Name:

Chris Chun

Gender:

Female

Qualifications:

Once I ate 14 tacos in one sitting. Another time I ate 9 ice creams at 9 different shops, all in one day. I am confident this will prove useful on the road. Also, I watch a lot of MacGyver.

Skills:

I bring first aid training, the ability to sleep anywhere, skills in persuasion, energy, creativity, curiosity, flexibility, knowledge of approximately 10 chords on the ukulele, and memorization of the entire Beatles oeuvre. That is to say, I bring nothing to the team except first aid training.

Looking forward to:

I'm looking forward to taking pictures, doing contortion and acrobatics in inappropriate places, and meeting new people.

NOT Looking forward to:

I'm not looking forward to being away from my partner and family for so long. On a less maudlin note, I'm not looking forward to losing the memory card with all the photos, which I'm sure I'll do. I'm also not looking forward to eating meat for the first time in two decades.

Previous driving experience:

I've driven from San Francisco to LA. That's about it. I also hate nature, I hate being dirty, and I hate camping. I hope Aneel doesn't see this.

About Me:

I love teaching and learning. I feel lucky to be able to do both.

Location:

College attended:

UC Berkeley

Place of birth:
