Hi, I’m Shuxin Barnes. My journey has taken me from the farmlands of Guangdong, China, to the vibrant culinary scene of Cleveland and now into the world of personal product analysis and blogging.

I was born into a farming family, where we cultivated sugar cane, rice, and papaya and raised livestock. At the age of ten, I immigrated with my family to Cleveland, Ohio, where we continued to grow our own food and stay rooted in the soil, quite literally. I originally pursued graphic design at Ohio State University, but during my junior year, I found myself drawn to something deeper and more sensory cooking. That shift changed my life.

In 2025, I decided to close that chapter and begin a new one. I launched this blog to focus on what I’ve always valued most: experience. Now, I write about the everyday products we use, test, and rely on—sharing honest, firsthand reviews and insights.
