I am a transplant from the bustling city of Guangzhou, China. Growing up in multicultural environments enabled me to learn quickly and see diversity and ambiguity as challenges rather than obstacles.

I received my BS in Consumer Economics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a Graphic Design certificate from the School of Art Institute in Chicago.

With experience in data analysis and user experience, I am able to take an idea from concept to launch and create holistic experiences across different channels and platforms.

I take pride in simplifying and humanizing designs to ensure for market readiness.

Define + Ideate

Prototype + Test

Develop prototypes for testing and iterate the process

Develop + Deliver
