What I Did?

I’m currently the Co-founder and product designer at Synchroni, where I led the design of a brain–computer interface ecosystem and define the company’s development strategy & product direction. Our work was presented at global tech conferences such as CES, attracting enterprise interest from Apple, Google, and Sony, driving $284K in early revenue. I previously interned at ByteDance, contributing to TikTok Shop’s design and globalization. I led the product design, and our work delivered over $2M in daily GMV. Interned at Shanghai AI Lab, I helped transform AI research into user-facing tools, and launched ArtiMuse at WAIC 2025.

 

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Interaction Design from ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena. I’m privileged to work with some of the best people and enjoy all aspects of my work.

Why Design?

I’ve loved drawing since I was a child. I could spend an entire day shut in my room, completely absorbed in finishing a piece, often talking to myself as I worked. That passion for art led me to major in graphic design, but my curiosity pushed me to explore beyond one field. During my first year at ArtCenter, I took classes in product, transportation, and concept design… Until my second year, I took Interaction Design I, where I first discovered Figma and experienced the entire process from user research to prototyping. That experience: creating new digital experiences to solve real problems, made me realize this was the direction I truly wanted to pursue, so I shifted my focus to digital product and UI/UX design.

When I'm Not Designing...

I like to draw

Drawing is something I’ve loved since I was young! My tools are very simple, a 2B pencil, a 16B pencil, and a napkin to blend the tones. Here are a few sketches I’m most proud of.

Life with my cat

Cotton is two years old and has the softest, roundest face. He’s calm and gentle, never scratches, always runs ahead of me and lies down, waiting to be petted.

Tinkering with new tech

I enjoy exploring emerging technologies through practice, from spatial computing to AI and brain-computer interfaces, and love visiting CES each year to see what’s next!

I love video games

Each game has its own visual language, way of storytelling, and interaction. I love seeing how these details shape my experience.
