I began my academic career studying industrial design as an undergraduate, where I developed a strong foundation in design principles and technical skills. After graduation, I worked as a costume designer for two years, honing my skills in fashion design and gained valuable experience in the industry. Driven by a desire to explore innovative approaches to fashion design, I decided to pursue further education in fashion Design at the Savannah College of Art and Design, that’s the official start of my journey in the world of fashion. My love for movies and proficiency in computing became catalysts for my unique approach to fashion design. Inspired by the sci-fi movies, I began integrating futuristic elements into my designs, exploring the intersection of fashion, technology, and imagination.The recognition I received from esteemed platforms such as CFDA, THE ROOKIES and FIDA, with digital fashion and textile awards, served as affirmations of my dedication and creativity.
As my journey unfolded, I found myself drawn towards a new chapter. Harnessing my experiences, I am embarking on the venture of launching my own fashion brand in Atlanta. In 2019, I established my own studio in China, initially focusing on designing toys. This venture allowed me to channel my artistic vision into tangible creations. Now, starting a ready-to-wear line, I aims to weave the story before into a narrative and wearable art.
