Born and raised in China, I've always been captivated by the art of design and storytelling. For five years, I applied these passions to the legal world, crafting compelling, evidence-based narratives for immigration cases. I helped artists showcase their extraordinary abilities to government agencies, turning their journeys into stories that resonated with decision-makers. This experience honed my ability to build logical, persuasive cases, a skill that initially drew me toward a career as an attorney. When I received offers to pursue a Juris Doctor, I paused—could I apply my storytelling superpower elsewhere?

Living abroad for over a decade and being bilingual has gifted me with a unique perspective. I've learned to see, think, and feel the world through diverse lenses. This empathy became my superpower, shaping my approach to design thinking and user-centric strategies. Thus, I decided to pivot my career and become a product designer.

Educated at Drexel and Clark, I’ve channeled my passion for creativity into a career spanning continents and industries. My storytelling skills have empowered countless artists to succeed in organizations like the Smithsonian American Art Museum, The Washington Post, Meta, and Microsoft. Now, as a product designer, I’ve built end-to-end experiences across AI-driven tools and inclusive platforms—shaping Motiff’s AI-powered UI design system and leading the 0→1 design of Juno, an AI litigation platform now used by real law firms.

Whether through crafting stories or designing products, I strive to connect people, ideas, and experiences in meaningful ways.
