Just joined – here's my story!
Hi everyone!

I've been a lurker on a lot of these forums/websites. Read crazy stories, read weird stories, read wholesome stories. You name it...

Here's mine:

The interesting thing was that I was unintentionally introduced to a lot of religions as a kid. My family is Hmong, refugees of the Vietnam War from Laos. I was born in a refugee camp in Thailand and grew up in a conservative town in Wisconsin, and then moved to a liberal one: Madison, Wisconsin. Which is pretty diverse for Wisconsin, so I saw a lot of other cultures and religions...

I had heard many origin stories, but no secular ones surprisingly! I finally heard about the Big Bang theory in 6th grade. And as a found my love for science and teaching, I realized that the Big Bang theory needed a story too.

As an educator now, I'm actually working to publish the first book to explain the Big Bang theory to preschoolers!
