I am Kai!
I like Kai because:
- Itās actually my first name
- Itās also the the legal first names of my brother and sister and I think thatās funny (Kaijing & Kaitong)
- The Chinese character åÆ means triumphant and thatās pretty sick
- I used to shy away from how ethnic Kai Chen sounded and did all I could to distance myself from being Chinese - I donāt feel this way anymore
- Itās gender-neutral which resonates with how Iād like to be perceived in professional settings and the first impression Iād like to make
- I still like Cathy so if you know me by that name feel free to continue calling me that.
