About

Hi! I am a London & Shanghai-based visual designer whose work covers and often bridges multiple practices, including graphic design, creative coding, and 3d rendering. My works are often intersted in the “now”, the phenomeons happening in the world, and using graphic languages as a way of both research and communication.

Currently open to both hiring and freelance work.I’m always happy to chat about any potential project you may have. Projects large or small, speculative or concrete.
