Design innovation leader connecting AI, sustainability, and interdisciplinary education through research and future-focused design
I’m a designer, educator, and researcher working at the intersection of design, technology, sustainability, and social innovation. As President of Shanghai University of Engineering Science and former Dean of Tongji University’s College of Design and Innovation, I’ve focused on building interdisciplinary models that connect AI, engineering, business, and creative practice. My work explores how design can shape future systems, communities, and human-centered innovation at both social and technological scales.
