在整理這些作品的過程裡發現，在不同專案的限制中，透過合適的故事、圖像與材質來完成視覺溝通，是我一直以來的設計與創作實踐。
我喜歡誕生於日常生活的故事、簡單而節制的圖像、色彩，以及有趣的材質組合。在工作之餘，我也喜歡旅行、音樂、自然和自由創作。
目前為獨立工作者，曾任 Five Metal Shop 平面設計師（2014–2019），參與過中大型品牌規劃、商品包裝與商品開發等專案。
2022 年 COVID 期間，移居至花東縱谷，目前定居於台東市，並不定期短居於台南／曼谷，與各地工作者保持合作。

This portfolio brings together selected work from the past decade, including both independent projects and collaborations with other creatives. It reflects the design fields I hope to continue exploring in the next stage of my practice:
book editing and design,
brand visuals and concepts,
product design,
printed matter,
posters,
illustration,
collage,
as well as collaborations that don’t fit into a single category.
Working across projects with different contexts and constraints, I explore visual communication through stories, imagery, and materiality. Looking back, I realize this approach has consistently shaped my design and creative practice.
I am drawn to stories from everyday life, images that are simple and considered, color, and a sense of play in material choices.
Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, music, nature, and personal creative projects.
I am currently working as an independent designer. I previously worked as a graphic designer at Five Metal Shop (Taipei, 2014–2019), where I was involved in brand planning, packaging design, and product development.
In 2022, during the COVID period, I moved to eastern Taiwan and am now based in Hualien. I also spend time in Tainan and Bangkok occasionally, working remotely and collaborating with people in different places.
