What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that blend education, storytelling, and technology, fostering creativity and collaboration.

I am a dedicated educator and theatre professional with extensive experience in teaching and directing. Over the past few years, I have worked across various educational settings, including elementary schools and community programs, where I have designed and facilitated engaging learning experiences. My passion for storytelling drives my teaching methods, allowing me to connect with students of all ages and backgrounds.

As an actress and director’s assistant, I have supported numerous productions, guiding university students in educational theatre workshops and camps. My work has involved collaborating with organizations like the Hon Hai Education Foundation, where I tutored rural students in online English classes. I thrive in environments that require cross-disciplinary teamwork and adaptability, and I am committed to fostering self-expression and collaborative learning among my students.
