About

I’m an instructional designer with over 6 years of experience in education—spanning K–12 classrooms, after-school programs, and digital learning environments. I specialize in creating accessible, engaging, and learner-centered experiences that bring together instructional theory, UX thinking, and the power of multimedia and AI. My work includes leading projects like the Juvenile Remediation Curriculum at UNC and independently building Hello Carolina, a task-based onboarding course for international students. I design with empathy and intention, using frameworks like ADDIE, SAM, and UDL, while staying hands-on with tools like Articulate 360, Vyond, Figma, and Canvas LMS. Whether I’m designing animations, building prototypes, or optimizing accessibility for diverse learners, my goal is always to help people learn confidently and meaningfully. Bilingual in English and Mandarin, I bring adaptability, curiosity, and a love for learning to everything I do. Let’s connect—I’m always open to collaborations in higher ed, EdTech, and beyond.
