“There were times when I felt like giving up because there were too many problems to endure but I knew that whatever I was studying, I had to see it through to the end.”

“Don’t be afraid to fall and always learn to rise again even though it might not be easy, especially if you are away from your home country,” she told mStar.

The 33-year-old does not intend to stop with her fifth academic scroll as she plans to pursue a second Ph.D. in artistic production at another Spanish university this September.

A big congrats to Dr. Soo Wincci for all of her hard work and splendid achievements! Thank you too for being such an inspiring role model, and we hope to hear more good news from you soon!
