Welcome and thank you for visiting my site! I'm currently an assistant professor affiliated with School of Journalism at Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

I received my Master’s degree in Journalism and Communications and a minor in Finance from Peking University HSBC Business School. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from the Department of Sociology at Peking University and a double degree in Chinese Language and Literature from the Department of Chinese.

I am a writer / designer / developer in my spare time. I won prizes in competitions such as the National Data Journalism Competition, China DataViz Competition, PacificVis Storytelling Contest, China Digital Humanities Open Data Contest, and Huawei Data Analyst Competition.
