With twenty years of experience in the light and shadow art field, she has led her team to win numerous domestic and international awards, promoting the integration of urban renewal, cultural tourism, and digital technology.

Motivation for Joining: Joining the ranks of AALD senior members is not only professional recognition but also a responsibility. Lighting design has transcended a single field and requires the integration of architecture, technology, and culture. I will take this opportunity to deepen cross-border practice, explore the deep coupling of AI and light, and practice the concept of a healthy lighting environment. Collaborating with peers to research cutting-edge technologies and build an industry ecosystem will ensure that every beam of light combines aesthetic value with technological connotations, fulfilling the mission entrusted by the times.
