I’m a multidisciplinary designer, researcher, and strategist working at the intersection of futures, systems, and culture.
With over 15 years of experience across finance, research, and design, I currently work as the APAC Foresight Manager at Arup, helping cities and organisations navigate uncertainty and imagine regenerative futures.
My career began in finance at Goldman Sachs, but I shifted toward design to merge analytical precision with creative inquiry. Studies in applied mathematics, interaction design, and poetic computation shaped a research-driven practice that blends data analysis with storytelling, centring agency and emotional nuance.
My work spans interactive and service design, futures practice, and research into cultural memory. It has been recognised with a Core77 Design Award and exhibited internationally, from Milan to Dubai to Singapore. My project mapping Hong Kong’s street names reveals how everyday urban markers encode layered histories, transforming data into cultural storytelling that has been featured in Bloomberg and HK Free Press, and cited in academic research.
Beyond practice, I share ideas through guest lectures on design futures and cultural systems, engaging students and practitioners across Asia and Europe. What drives me is making futures tangible, connecting imagination to everyday decisions that shape the worlds we live in.
