“My work explores the intersection of retail businesses, human behavior, and urban systems. Studying cities from the ground up, I examine how everyday interactions scale into broader social and economic patterns and inform interventions that support independent businesses and strengthen the places where people live and work.”

• I grew up in Ruian, Zhejiang

• I studied Economics and Urban Studies at Barnard College

• I’ve worked across real estate, consumer brands, and consulting, including roles at JLL, Nike, and OC&C

• I’m drawn to work that shapes consumer experiences and reimagines the built environment
