Microsite for a week-long workshop at the Yale School of Art, featuring activities including improvisational choreography, cooking sessions, lectures, sound-making and more. These nightly workshops were initiated to encourage a group of graphic design students to seek connections and overlaps between their own discipline with other artistic practices. The website is energetic, lively, and echoes the movement of people in space. Changing throughout the day, the site grows incrementally darker as it approaches the start of the workshop’s programming, which begins daily in the evening.
Identity for a series of quarterly celebrations at UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture. Based on the existing UCLA Arts logo, a custom typeface was designed around a circular grid that became the basis for the identity.
Interactive editorial experience celebrating LGBTQ+ owned spaces through a series of interviews.
Promotional materials and front-end website development for Dance Italia, an Italy-based dance workshop, and its parent company Stefanie Nelson Dancegroup, a New York City-based performance ensemble. All promotional materials were designed around a library of dynamic graphic shapes inspired by the geometric language of the dancers’ physical forms.
32 poems (16 in English, 16 in Chinese) collaged from screenshots of found text scraped off of buildings, signages, and other city constructions. All screenshots were taken from the Google street view of Monterey Park, a neighborhood in the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles with a dense Chinese-American population. Taking the forms of a website and zines, the resulting collages function as maps for poetically navigating the neighborhood as well as an ode to a city.

The graphic identity centers around elevated “O”s, drawing attention to the circle as a symbol that speaks to the cycles of life.
Web altar for the rabbit god, a deity that guards queer people in Chinese mythology.
