I was born in Shanghai, but came to the US from Taiwan when I was 19. Now I am 83. I got BS in engineering physics MS in physics. There was no jobs possibility in Taiwan at that time. So I joined IBM in 1962. I worked in IBM till retirement. a super great company. I lived in a 99%white upper middle class neighborhood in upstate NY with a few Chinese families in town. My only regret in life was that I did not let my children grew-up where children are just like them. Knew what I know now, I would have made a different choice.
