Available to hire
I am an interdisciplinary designer blending industrial design, UI/UX, and front-end development to create medical and service robots. I designed 5 healthcare robots from concept to production, deployed in hospitals in Shenzhen and Hong Kong during COVID, and contributed to cloud fleet management platforms and robot UI development. I was the first author on 3 granted U.S. patents on robot design, led the design of the WELL Smart Companion and PATHFYNDER Smart Chair (launched at CES 2022), and directed a 6-minute animated trailer to visualize UBTech’s elderly care ecosystem. I’ve produced live-action visuals, AR-enabled trade brochures, and oversaw prototyping, vendor logistics, and eCommerce channels for UBOT products, achieving cost reductions and robust product differentiation. My work Bridges product strategy, design execution, and manufacturing feasibility to deliver impactful, award-winning solutions.
