Education 

Washington University in St. Louis, Saint Louis, MO, US, MArch, Master of Architecture 2+

In Washu, my first studio is an international housing studio with Emiliano Lopez in Barceloneta, and my second studio is also a residence related studio with Monica Rivera in San Juan. Therefore, I did many work about physical models and human scale things in those residential projects. And the both sites are special cities for my perspective, so that I learned a lot about the importance of the climatic, social and cultural dimension of a specific city. I am impressed about that regional exploration and how to provide the best place to live for low income people. I also did large urban and architecture project in my graduation project of undergraduate school in Shanghai. And I focused on the issue of how to build and combine a new city complex with old historical buildings.
