In 2017, I left my hometown in Henan, China, to start a new life in the United States, all alone without my mom, dad, or my brother who is three years older than me. I landed in Vancouver, Washington, where I attended a small Catholic high school with only about 30 students in my class, while living with a host family, now my American family, who raised me as their own son throughout my teenage years.

I’m very grateful, because now I’m a man of two countries, with family on both sides of the earth…

— Fast forward to 2025 —

I am a photographer.

I am a bilingual, award-winning performing artist.

I am an Emerson College alum.

And I am so excited to meet you, hear your story, and take your picture.

I thrive in multicultural environments that value originality and authenticity. My work is a reflection of the world as I see it and I seek to not sugarcoat, yet maybe, preserve it’s truth.
