What I'm about.

Where I'm From

Weifang, Changchun, Beijing — in that order, but none of them feel like a complete answer. Beijing is where I work; Hong Kong and Los Angeles are where my mind keeps drifting. I haven't found a city that fits all the versions of me yet.

What I Do

Product Designer at Microsoft Beijing, working on Bing Image Search and AI search experiences. I led a design evolution from traditional layouts to an AI-first component system — and learned that sometimes the most impactful design decision is choosing not to redesign.

How I Think

I learn by stealing. A bit from here, a bit from there, modeling whoever seems to be doing it right. I used to think that was a weakness. Now I know it's how I stay open.

What's Next

In eight months I went from zero code to shipping Figma plugins, a WebGL website, and a macOS native app. This site is itself proof — built in conversation with AI. The question I care about: what happens to design when the designer can build?

Outside Work

I swim. I cook at a level that surprises people. I keep coming back to Ryuichi Sakamoto. I box intermittently, which is a polite way of saying I start and stop based on how my life is going.
