My name is pronounced like Nancy. I enjoy doing adventurous/dangerous and unconventional things that my insurance company would probably like to know about. I always appreciate humor. I love sports, especially tennis, basketball, snowboarding, and chess. Because I grew up very poor, I believe that we build our own successes through hard work and maximizing the opportunities we are given. My family and friends are the most important thing in my life. Live so once is enough

Congratulations Nanxi from another GPB, Barbara May
You may be too young to remember a commercial that had a familiar jingle to it; something along the lines of, “You’ve come along way Baby, to get where you’ve got to be!” I was more about feminism that traveling a long distance.
Congratulations on your continued successes. I too am on LinkedIn, but it doesn’t even come close to yours.
Keep smiling Nanxi. You have much to smile about.

Hello Nanxiliu,
I am certainly happy you enjoyed my blog and hope you become a “frequent flyer”. I just took a look at your linked in site and see that you are an investment banker. That takes a great deal of hard work. I am a mechanical engineer and work in the southeastern United States. I will be following your posts from now on. Take care. Have a great weekend.

I have noticed that you keep yourself quite busy with all those cool goals that you got. Pretty impressive to see your progress on them. Good luck with your startup – it’s important.
Hope to have you visiting my blog again soon.
Nanxi Liu, thank you for looking at my blog. I admire a person who rises above their origins. You’ve got more ahead of you than what you’ve already accomplished and if that’s a picture of you that I see then I’m really looking at a beautiful young lady.
Thanks so much for your kind words!!
glad u enjoyed my blog–and like others before me think your motto is spot on “Live so once is enough”…spread the glove!
Thank you, luv your quote! Live so once is enough!!! I couldn’t agree more =)

I am from the Providence, RI area and there’s another company you may want to check out with similar goals to yours. Maternova is trying to place technologies into the hands of doctors around the world to improve the childbirthing process. Maybe you’ll find something of use to you. Good luck in all your endeavors.
Hi Nancy, I’m not sure how you ended up finding my Cycle Path blog, but I’m sure glad you did. I’m grateful for your support and offer the same to you. I’m intrigued by you blog and all the wonderful profile info and beautiful images you share there. I’m sure you get lots of compliments all the time so I won’t go on too much for now. I will say this…It seems we have a few things in common, including being adventurous spirits who appreciate unconventional perspectives. Also, I love music and motorcycles. I’m a drummer, a motorcycle rider, a Martial Artist, writer and creator in my own right. If you ever need a bicycle tech in your neck of the woods, please let me know! I love to travel.

Love your blog and your motto!
Thanks for “liking” my latest book review. Your site is pretty awesome as well. I’m now pretty much retired so, although I’m on Linkedin, I don’t really bother with it much now. Best of luck in your career.
You’re really so talented and driven. It’s very inspiring
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I look forward to reading more on yours!
Thank you for reading SCC Library’s blog! You are an inspiration by all you do and want to accomplish! Best of wishes for the future! I will RSS your blog! Have a great day!
I have passed word of Nanoly, which I saw linked in your “About Me”, posting to an organization that provides emergency response services to extremely remote areas. For example, during the flooding in Pakistan a couple of years ago, these people went in to the most rugged areas and treated many dehydration cases from waterborne illnesses. They have also done work in South Sudan, Haiti, and Chile. They generally go in after major disasters when conventional NGOs can not access an area. Most are former military special operations medical personnel who are now doctors and EMTs or are medical personnel with experience in extreme adventuring skills who can survive without much infrastructure. Team Rubicon is their name.
Oh, and their website is here: http://teamrubiconusa.org/
They have gone to the border region of Thailand / Burma and many other places around the world when needed or when disaster strikes.
What a small world! I actually met the president and co-founder of Team Rubicon, Jake, at a conference last November in New York. We were both attending a conference targeted at social innovation projects hosted by Mobilize.org. Thanks for dropping this note and sending them a message about Nanoly!
Impressive About. If only you could bottle that drive and entrepreneurial spirit–you’d be a multimillionaire by 25. At the rate you’re going, that’s a distinct possibility. Good luck–and thanks for taking the time to read my blog.
Hi! I just stopped by to say thanks for “liking” my blog post. So nice to have people I don’t know read my writing (as opposed to my usual family and friends). You look like you have an amazing future ahead (that seems to have already started from what I’ve read so far). Congratulations on all of it, and thanks again for stopping by!
Hi Nancy. Thanks for liking my blog. Wow! I envy you
you’ve accomplished a lot in a young age. It’s an inspiration for me to look forward that even your a mom and you got your hands full, you can still do something for yourself and enjoy.
Kudos to you!
Hi there! Thank you for “liking” my latest blog post (and one very dear to me at that). Wish you continued success. : )
Thank you for liking my blog. I wish you well in all of your activities. You’re getting the most out of the the opportunities available to you, and that is very nice to see. I hope your startup goes well. It’s clearly a very worthy cause. My friend Varsha says you are inspiring and she would mention you to her daughters as what can be achieved at such a young age.
Good luck
Suleman
Glad to see Nanoly continues to progress on its path to success. Very inspiring to see you and your team making it. Will be back to read more, soon.
I believe I have ran into the most accomplished person ever!
Thanks for liking one of my poems & keep up the accomplishments.

Hello
Thank you for stopping by my little blog.
Reading yours is awe inspiring, don’t forget to breathe!
Thank you! I definitely try to take time off to breathe
Yes quite important lol
you are such an inspiration… I think I have a big crush on you! Take Care and Godbless.
Awww thank you! you’re too nice!
Yeah, if only you were good at something …
I bet your folks are just a little bit chuffed. I’m guessing they’re gonna write a book about parenting, right? I’d buy it. In fact, I’ll buy one for my own folks and ask them if we could try again.
haha thanks shelley for the kind words. the truth is, i was probably the most rebellious kid growing up! i spent the beginning part of my childhood living without my parents because they were abroad. as a result, i was very independent and never listened to my parents so much so that they were basically forced to give me lots of freedom. nonetheless, they were very supportive of all the random things i wanted to try. maybe that’s the key? just let your kid run loose? haha
Thank you for reading and the like of my post.
My, you are a busy beaver. I commend you on the many ventures you have innovated. I admire you for your creative, technical, and innovative accomplishments.
After reading the first two sentences i was going to shout ‘NANY DREW’ !!!!!!!
thanks for liking my blog. I’m very impressed by what you have accomplished! best of luck to you, although you’ll hardly need it with all that hard work you do!
My heavens, girl, do you ever sleep with all the projects and activities you’re into?! I appreciate you stopping by my blog and liking my humble little world. You are an inspiration for all young people and I admire your successes with the Nanoly project. Your talents seem limitless!
Wow, super impressive! I have signed up to follow you so I can keep up to date with all your exciting projects. Good luck!
thank you for liking my blog post! I thought your first piano recording was pretty awesome too!
You sound like a genius who has her feet on the ground. Friends and ingenuity… a powerful concept and all I can say is you go girl! Not to be sexist, but I am humbled
Look forward to following you and thanks so much for stopping by my little blog. pdd
Wow….. I am amazed at how much you have achieved for someone so young. This is very impressive. Great blog.

Hi Nancy. Thanks for visiting and liking my blog. Browsing yours has been fascinating, particularly given I’m in the process of setting up my first startup business.
