My journey in research began as a kid on the Taipei Metro, where I’d quietly observe and craft stories about the people around me. That early curiosity grew into a research philosophy rooted in empathy and systems thinking.

With a background in cognitive science, data science, and human factors, I bring a rigorous, interdisciplinary approach to understanding user behavior and translating those insights into human-centered experiences. My background allows me to navigate complex systems with analytical depth—bridging qualitative and quantitative research to inform the design of intuitive, intentional, and impactful interactions.

Outside of research, my passion for rowing and architectural history has taught me to value rhythm, systems, and ways design shapes how we move and connect. As I continue in my career, I’m drawn to designing collaboratively to support more uplifting, meaningful interactions. I believe that when we build a world rooted in insight, we can create genuine experiences—and perhaps a sense of clarity in a noisy world.

People know me as an early riser, a habit I picked up as a student-athlete. It suits my name, 晴, which means “a sunny day,” since I’m usually up with the morning light. :)
