RESUME
about me
I’m a dancer, actress, choreographer, and educator who views dance as both a personal and cultural expression, blending my Chinese heritage with my evolving artistic voice. Dance serves as a language that connects me to both the past and the present, providing a platform to explore identity and share meaningful stories. My goal is to inspire others to see dance as a powerful tool for expression and transformation, particularly for younger generations.
