I am currently a graduate student studying Design Media Arts at UCLA. I studied Film and Media Arts in my undergrad at University of Utah. My art practice is in video, 3D animation, poetry, and open-source software. I am a professional graphic designer, web designer, and 3D animator. But ultimately, I aim to be a storyteller! =)

I hope to expand my interests into the research of design and information systems to contemplate how infrastructures and platforms utilized by society (whether physical or digital) shape our cultural behaviors.

I am fluent in English. I am a native Cantonese and Vietnamese speaker. I can also speak Farsi (Persian) and read Japanese.
