I&#8217;ve always loved animals, especially cats (sorry dog people), and during my undergraduate studies I discovered that I really love fluid mechanics too. In the Hu Lab, I found I could combine my love for animals and nature as well as my scientific interests. I still ride horses when I go home to visit, and once I&#8217;ve graduated I hope to get back into horseback riding more regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Besides my research, I enjoy running and doing yoga. I love to read &#8211; my favorite genres are biographies, historical novels, mysteries, and fantasy. Right now I am re-reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy.\u00a0 If you&#8217;d like to recommend your favorite book send me a message on my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hu.gatech.edu\/Liu\/contact\/\">contact page<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I grew up in Covington, LA and first moved to Atlanta in 2011 when I began my undergraduate studies at Georgia Tech.
