narrative description |
Born and raised in Taiwan; her father was a Chinese surgeon born in Shanghai, her mother an American nurse/missionary (died 1963 in childbirth). Helen has no siblings; she is a dual citizen of the United States of America and the Republic of China. Her undergraduate degree was earned at Chung Shan Medical University (1979); her medical doctorate at Toho University, in Tokyo, Japan (1982). While she was studying in Japan, her father died; her finances became quite precarious, but an American philanthropic program stepped in to support her during her subsequent schooling. She performed her residency and specialty training at the NTU Hospital, in Taipei, and was a fully accredited pediatric surgeon (in Taiwan) by 1985. Helen was visited by representatives of the Morrow Industries Medical Education program in April of that year, and invited to join the Morrow Project. Besides their usual array of persuasive evidence, they also expected some amount of gratitude by Helen for their support of her education. Before arriving in the United States for Project training in May of 1986, Helen has only visited the United States a few times -- twice to visit cousins in Los Angeles before she entered high school, and once (in 1984) for a week-long medical conference in Hawai'i. She's a very urban person, with almost no experience in outdoor activities. She has held a regular (class 1, "automobiles up to 3500 kg") driver's license in Taiwan since 1975. She's not licensed to practice medicine anywhere in the U.S. Hobbies include shopping for nice clothes, partying and dancing (as a stress relieving activity), photography and baseball. She dislikes tanning. A month before entering Project training, she had her gall bladder and appendix removed; she should avoid large, fatty meals. She wears size "short small" coveralls. |
