English: Dawn was born and grew up in Shandong, China. She likes spicy food and chatting with her friends. Sometimes she goes to different cities in Shandong to explore the local food and culture there, and finds that there are great disparities in development among cities in her province. People in less-developed cities tend to move to the more economically developed cities. This situation aroused her curiosity, thus, she shows interests in studying more about how population growth in cities influence their sustainable development.
