Statement

I am passionate about bringing joy to people's lives through products and experiences that connect to deep emotional values on multiple levels.

I was born in Beijing with hearing loss and didn’t have hearing aids until I was 12. The world I lived in was pure and quiet. Experiencing weakness in hearing at such a young age gave me a heightened sensitivity to the way things looked and felt, an intuitive sensibility of how things functioned, and the imagination to grow.

I have learned to connect this sensitivity to my work. Whether I'm working on a modular shelving system or a wellness interface, I want my designs to be carefully crafted for accuracy, sustainability, and quality. I know how it feels to experience thoughtful design and I too want to bring that same thoughtfulness to others.
