I spent my early childhood in China and reunited with my parents in the United States when I was seven. I grew up in the service industry, from taking orders at my parents’ restaurant to working in cafés. Those experiences taught me how much I love connecting with people and creating small moments of joy.
Outside of design, I’m happiest in life’s simple pleasures: spending time with friends, saying yes to new experiences, and cooking meals to share.
Curiosity fuels me. I love exploring new places, whether close to home or somewhere unfamiliar. One of my favorite pastimes is sitting in a café and watching the world go by. I’m constantly in awe of how vast the world is, and how rich the human experience can be.
