About Me
Hi! I’m a master’s student in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) at Université Paris-Saclay. Prior to this, I earned a degree in Computer Science and Technology in China. I’ve also spent over ten years exploring painting and the arts as a personal interest, which informs my interest in the intersection of technology, design, and human behavior.
My career journey has been driven by a curiosity about how interactive systems can be crafted to better serve people, not only in terms of functionality but also in how they feel and connect.
