About
With a robust foundation in architecture from Carnegie Mellon University and Wuhan University, I have transitioned into a dynamic career at the intersection of technology and design. Currently, I am an XR Developer at the University of Rochester, where I contribute to cutting-edge extended reality projects. My previous roles include HCI Researcher at CMU's Human-Computer Interaction Institute, where I explored human-robot interaction and VR development, and Product Manager at DelightScape Interactives Inc., focusing on UX/UI design and product management. As a Research Assistant at Carnegie Mellon University, I engaged in urban research and spatial data analysis. Additionally, my tenure as a Creative Technologist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences involved developing a UX/UI prototype for medical systems and creating ecological simulations. My diverse experiences reflect a commitment to leveraging technology for innovative solutions in architecture and beyond.
