Jennia Yang 杨济瑄 is a first-year economics student at Emmanuel College. She believes in the power of knowledge, arts, love, and altruism to fight back uncertainties and isolation in a changing world. Growing up in Xi'an, the historical capital city of 13 Chinese dynasties, her beliefs were shaped by her four-year project advocating for local cultural intangible heritages. This endeavour evolved into an educational campaign that reached thousands of local students. As a natural risk-taker in search for rewards, she continuously rejects comfort and mediocrity. Amongst the many roads that diverted in life, she somehow ended up on the roads less taken: leaving Gaokao for her dream of attending Cambridge, assuming the role of a female CEO by founding a startup, and dismissing the peer pressure for finance careers to stop and reflect. Currently, she serves as the Vice President at Cambridge University Entrepreneurs, along with committee roles at various university societies. She also enjoys museums, podcasts, piano, debating, sun-bathing, meeting random people (and dogs), and sometimes playing Tetris. Putting a memorable closure to her first year at university, she is grateful for this conversation with David to learn more about herself and the world.

WHY? COFFEE'S ON ME, DAVID QUAN 权丁文
TL;DR: To process my emotions after a grueling campaign for President of The Cambridge Union, I reflected upon the influences of my late Grandfather and wrote him a letter: https://linktr.ee/DavidQuan. Drawing inspiration from him, I hope to learn more from others through genuine discussions – giving listeners heartfelt conversations filled with authentic insights, and giving guests legacy-worthy interviews to treasure.
To converse with someone without a strict time limit or structure – meticulously engaging in a curious process of clarifications or elaborations – is not only a rare privilege. This longer format also allows the sharing of otherwise unshared or unappreciated anecdotes. There are appeals to sound-bite media, of course, but the metrics that matter most to me are more about the uniqueness of contribution than measures of virality. Over time, I hope to be able to better deconstruct guests' fascinating experiences – to seamlessly tease out the insights for listeners to enjoy and learn from while cooking, commuting, relaxing, or walking their pet.
But this personal project is fundamentally as much about what we can learn from the guests as it is to give them (current) legacy-worthy interviews. My top priority is for guests to enjoy a unique opportunity to challenge, learn about, and be themselves; hopefully, they will be able to keep recordings of in-depth, heartfelt conversations to reflect on in years’ time. And the best part for guests? Coffee’s on Me, David Quan 权丁文
