Hi there! I’m really glad you clicked on my blog—let’s start with the basics: my Chinese name is Zhang Jiayi, but all my friends call me “Little Penguin”. Isn’t that cute? This nickname stuck because I always walk with a little waddle and a big smile, just like those fluffy penguin chicks! My English name is Tinazi, and that’s what I use most when I talk about my favorite hobby: making media content.

First off, I’m a total extrovert. I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, and turning short chats into long-lasting friendships. Nothing beats sitting down with someone new, holding a drink, and realizing we both love the same show or snack—such a fun surprise!
Before college, I had a super fun time in China studying acting and hosting. I still remember my first time hosting on stage: I was nervous, but so excited. As soon as I started talking to the audience, my nerves went away. Those experiences taught me how to connect with people through words—and that’s why I fell in love with media in the first place!

Now, I’m studying media in college, and I couldn’t be happier. News and media creation feel like the perfect fit for me—whether I’m writing a short article, filming a small vlog, or brainstorming ideas for a new project, I get that same excited feeling I had on stage. I love how media lets us share stories that matter, and I’m still learning so much every day.
That’s a little bit about me! Thanks for reading!
