a bit more about me

Interned at Wiley as a UI/UX designer, I not only sharpened my design skills but also sparked my interest in product strategy.

I'm an adventurous explorer, spent 6 years studying abroad and went over 40+ cities with my camera. It shaped me into an empathetic team player.

Outside of the workplace, I'm also a creative illustration artist. This pursuit has equipped me with strong visual skills and heightened attention to detail.
