I’m a Deaf designer & developer based in the U.S., originally from Shanghai. A childhood illness led to hearing loss—and also opened a world of colour, books, and sign language.
With my parents’ support, I grew up drawing and learning how design communicates. I later studied design and completed a master’s in sign language linguistics in Korea. I use ASL, CSL, KSL, and International Sign.
I spent five years in a top ad agency in China serving major brands. Amid communication barriers, I built trust through clarity, strategy, and craft. Alongside, I supported Deaf-led nonprofits and language advocacy.
Design is language. Accessibility is care. Craft is how we tell the truth—quietly or boldly—so people feel seen.
Since moving to the U.S. in 2019, I trained in full-stack development and now work as a studio-of-one, collaborating with Deaf-owned businesses and nonprofits to build inclusive brands, websites, and content with heart.
Mission
Make design welcoming—where Deaf culture, clear language, and thoughtful technology meet to help good work travel further.
