Video Not Working? Fix It Now

I got struck and inspired so much by an MIT-educated neurosurgeon who shared his feeling of being lost in the medical field after realizing the truth of being a neurosurgeon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25LUF8GmbFU&t=20s). It made me wanna make this video to explain my own journey as a former Data Scientist trained by MIT/UCL, who quit the career I used to dream of and became a self-taught full-stack founder. This means there is no established database ready for me to query from and build models, but everything starts from speaking to users, designing a user experience flow, prototyping a functional full-stack app, and launching it to the market. It wasn't an easy journey, but I got so much motivation to do this after thinking and debating very hard about the career of being a data scientist. If this clicks well with you, perhaps we share similar values; if not, don't take it personally—everyone has a preference.
