Born in China and growing up in Sydney, she has spent the past decade running a motion design studio as well as writing about her process of translating complex ideas into visuals for clients like The Wall Street Journal, National Geographic, and the International Center of Photography. Since committing to painting fulltime in 2025, she has traded the rapid pace of image-making with agency clients for the much slower accumulation of oil paint—working over months and years with the same models, building surfaces where physical weight and psychological distance co-exist. Her paintings explore the tension between revealing and withholding: bodies that insist on being seen while remaining fundamentally guarded, a push-pull she experiences as a queer immigrant navigating visibility and restraint. Her work has been exhibited at the Basilica Hudson and Kingston Open Studios. She lives and works between her studio in the Hudson Valley and New York City.
