NING XU

👋 Hi! I'm Ning (pronounced like in "Good Eve-ning"). I'm an immigrant and a mother. I think in a mix of English and Dutch, while my mother tongues are Hangzhou dialect and Mandarin Chinese. I’m always pondering something, and sometimes I ponder while shuffle dancing. I’ve been a tough person, but practicing being more open and soft. Somewhere alongside all this, I’ve also built products and teams across different industries and cultures.
