Ph.D. Candidate, University of Pennsylvania
Incoming Assistant Professor, Lawrence Technological University (Spring 2026)
I’m an interdisciplinary researcher and architect developing high-performance building components by coupling novel construction materials with advanced fabrication and robotic systems to address environmental challenges.
I’ve taught and collaborated at Penn, Cornell, UW, and universities across Asia, leading courses and workshops in computational design, robotics, and fabrication. My work appears in Materials & Design, Advanced Functional Materials, Additive Manufacturing, Building and Environment, and at ACADIA, eCAADe, and CAADRIA. Previously at CallisonRTKL I led computational design on 30+ projects across Asia, the Middle East, and North America, later co-founding Adaptive Design LLC and NCF (a large computational design platform in China).
