I am a UK-based stage director and facilitator originally from China. Having trained and created work across Shanghai, Taipei, Athens and London, my practice has evolved through working across different political, cultural and theatrical contexts and navigating varied theatrical vocabularies and practices. I trained on the MA Directing course at LAMDA and continue to develop my practice through directing, assistant directing and collaborative projects, including as a Director Collaborator on the British Youth Opera Summer Programme.

As a first-generation immigrant artist working across theatre and opera, my work is informed by experiences of migration and cultural displacement. In developing new work, I am drawn to stories that challenge dominant narratives and amplify perspectives historically absent from cultural discourse. Alongside this, I am interested in reinterpreting canonical texts through East Asian and queer perspectives, interrogating inherited structures and reimagining how classical works can speak to urgent social and political questions today.

Formally, I believe theatre creates new realities and am interested in the emotional and psychological landscapes of the stage. Drawn to heightened bodies and theatrical forms that externalise interior worlds, I explore theatrical presence as an exchange of energy between performers and audiences. Through the composition of text, movement, image and technology, I create theatrical worlds where multiple layers of meaning coexist simultaneously. I am particularly interested in juxtaposition and in how different theatrical elements can speak alongside or against one another, creating forms of visual storytelling beyond language.

Alongside my directing practice, I also work as a facilitator. With a background in applied theatre, I have worked across schools and community settings and remain committed to creating participatory and accessible spaces where theatre can foster dialogue, connection and collective imagination.
