I am a Taiwan-born industrial designer based in Berlin, blending hardware design with computation. Over the past five years I worked at Pegatron as an Advanced Industrial Designer and at Logitech's Discovery & Innovation Team, where I helped frame future product concepts through design thinking and design sprints. I am now pursuing a double Master's in Design & Computation at UdK Berlin and TU Berlin to fuse design with AI and computation, while continuing to explore conductive fabrics, AI computing, and robotics. My strengths include trend forecasting, product design, CMF, and generative design. I enjoy collaboration, rapid ideation through design sprints, and exploring new materials and digital fabrication techniques to bring ideas from concept to mass production.
