I am but a tiny speck in this vast world, wandering through the journey of life, exploring and discovering the blissful moment of everyday life.

Through vision and senses, I gather these small joys, weaving them into a luminous world that radiates the tenderness and wonder of existence.

About Me 
I'm a meta-cultural and interdisciplinary designer working at the intersection of human computer interaction, data visualization and inclusive art. Born and raised in China, my path has taken me across the US and Japan, immersing me in diverse cultures and perspectives that continue to shape my creative and intellectual pursuits. Currently, I am a PhD student of the interdisciplinary design and media program advised by Dr. Carmen Hull.  

My research offers a pathway for technology to collaborate with diverse artistic subjectivities, and physicality, ensuring that artistic expression and human experience are not reduced by technological advancement but enriched through it.  By integrating technology and embodied expression, I develop inclusive platforms where diverse artistic voices (inclusive dance) find new ways of storytelling—harmonizing digital innovation with human creativity.

With a design background, I take a playful and interdisciplinary approach to my research, weaving creative threads and connecting the dots in unconventional ways. I draw inspiration from traditional design and art theories, infusing them into contemporary challenges to unearth fresh solutions. My skill set covers a wide range of areas, including computational design, qualitative research, movement based interaction design, multi-media design and digital fabrication. I bring these diverse skills to the table to tackle projects from multiple angles.

Beyond academia, I am a devoted dancer with a background in old-school Hip Hop. However, I have also ventured into styles such as heels（Shiori Takamura’s endance crew), dancehall (Sayaka & Shu Hei), jazz funk, urban choreography,  and contemporary. It is my love for movement-related subjects that stems from my dance background. I am also a huge fan for hiking and freediving. This year, I am planning to take the Camino de Santiago walk!
