I'm a designer with a background in military publicity — a combination you don't see every day. Based in Hefei, China, I'm currently pursuing a Master of Design at Hefei University of Technology, focusing on urban sculpture, public art, and spatial design. But before grad school, I spent three years working as an Officer in the Publicity Section of Unit 91428 and the Publicity Division of the East China Sea Fleet — where I learned to create under pressure and deliver results on tight deadlines. My core skills sit at the intersection of design and visual communication. I work with 3D modeling and rendering (military equipment, products, and spaces), photography, videography, and video post-production (editing, color grading, effects). I also have hands-on experience producing exhibition display boards and planning large-scale ceremonial events — from concept to execution. What sets me apart? Most designers haven't worked with the military. I bring discipline, precision, and the ability to adapt quickly to complex, high-stakes environments. I'm comfortable translating technical or abstract requirements into clear, compelling visuals that tell a story. Whether it's a 3D animation, a promotional video, or a public art installation — I approach every project with the same mindset: make it clear, make it impactful, and make it work. I speak Chinese natively, English at a working level (CET-6), conversational Japanese (JLPT N3), and basic German. I enjoy collaborating across cultures and disciplines, and I'm always looking to learn something new. Right now, I'm exploring opportunities in design, multimedia content creation, and cultural communications — especially roles where I can combine creative thinking with hands-on production. If that sounds like something you're working on too, I'd love to connect.
