Ashley Tam

Ashley is a Year 11/Grade 10 student from Harrow International School Hong Kong and rather than Biology or Chemistry, she is more interested in the Human Sciences, specifically Psychology and Linguistics (if one can count that as a science). Ashley loves learning about the brain, why we think and act the way we do and reasonings for human behaviour. She also loves learning about the complexities of language and how this influences our day-to-day lives from its evolution, etymology and more. Ashley sees the future of psychology and linguistics as combining new technologies like Artificial Intelligence and other research to create new treatments and understanding of psychological issues as well as preserving endangered languages and finding new connections between languages globally. In her free time, Ashley loves to dance, especially ballet, read anything mildly depressing and scrapbook all her memories into her journal!
