I design with a hypothesis,
not a hunch.

Born in Wenzhou, raised in Shanghai, shaped in Brooklyn. My path into design wasn't linear. I studied Integrated Design & Media at NYU, and almost chose data science instead. That decision never really left. It became the foundation of how I think.

I approach design like an experiment. Every interaction is a hypothesis, every iteration is a test. I care less about how something looks in isolation, and more about what it actually does — how it influences behavior, drives engagement, and changes outcomes.

I'm drawn to problems where design meets ambiguity: unclear requirements, conflicting constraints, high-stakes decisions. That's where structured thinking and iteration make the biggest difference.
