Summary

As a fifth-year doctoral student at the DAAP College of the University of Cincinnati, I possess a profound passion for architecture, viewing it as a harmonious blend of art and function essential for shaping human environments. With over two years of experience in architectural firms in China, I've been involved in a diverse range of projects from skyscraper and residential community design to regional planning. My approach is rooted in the belief that architecture should embrace diversity, rationality, and imagination to create spaces that are both beautiful and beneficial to humanity. Beyond my professional life, my love for design is complemented by interests in photography and traveling, which enrich my creativity and perspective. Dedicated and driven, I am determined to leave a positive mark on the world through architecture.
