I am currently a second-year research graduate studentat the School of Creative Media, City University of Hong Kong, working with Prof.RAY LC, Prof.Shengdong Zhao and Prof.Qinyuan Lei.
My research focuses on empowering individuals in complex creative (e.g., storytelling, visual arts, dance performance) and communicative (e.g., science communication, avatar-mediated communication) contexts that require inspiration, creativity, and nuanced support.
I design human-in-the-loop interactions that align AI with human mental models, drawing on cognitive psychology, communication theories, and insights from mixed-method empirical research. My recent research focuses on designing human-AI interaction paradigm that leverages narrative structures through intuitive interactions and visual inspiration to support storytelling, facilitate knowledge transfer, and enhance creative insights.
