A World of Difference Faith & Work EPS 19: Eva Leung on chemical engineering, vaccines, and faith conversations at work

Eva Leung is a chemical engineer, a TCK, a daughter of first generation immigrants to the US from Hong Kong. She is an expat in Singapore working in quality assurance in a contract manufacturing company and has years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. It was neither growing up in Arizona and Singapore, nor her studies at Princeton where she encountered the life changing conversations that led her to want to follow Jesus. It was a couple of co-workers at Merck that told her about their faith. This life change revolutionized everything for Eva, and began her journey at the intersectionality of faith and work.
She has always wanted to live the exact plot of Bicentennial Man by building a robot that can work with human body parts, and she wanted to go into healthcare earlier in life. Since she hates blood, chemical engineering it was.
She spent some time in Singapore as a kid, attending Singapore American School when her dad worked as a expat in Singapore. Moving to Singapore as a expat herself, as an adult when she transferred to Singapore with Merck Pharmaceuticals gave her a whole different view of the religious diversity within Singapore, which is the most religiously diverse nation in the world.
She recommends Every Good Endeavor by Tim Keller.
