With her clear and fluent delivery, Ni kept announcing the game's progress for an engaging and dynamic experience.

Off the ice, Ni is a Chinese teacher at the primary school of Jiaxing's Tsinghua Affiliated Middle School. Her school, the only one in Jiaxing with a standard ice rink, recently hosted the 2024 China Figure Skating Club League and the 2024 Zhejiang Youth Ice Hockey Championship. 

Through her volunteer work at these events, Ni has a strong bond with the sport of ice hockey, which ultimately led her to this international stage.

Armed with thorough preparation, exceptional speaking skills, and acute observation, Ni excelled in this international event. Her dedication and enthusiasm not only show her talent but also a touch of South China, which elevates the event with her distinctive presence.
