Born in Taiwan and raised between cultures, I learned early that identity isn't fixed—it is remembered. Formosa, "beautiful island," remains the beginning of my story.

Rooted in Taoist philosophy and Traditional Chinese Medicine, I learned to listen and follow beyond words—to energy, nature, and the quiet intelligence of life.

Music became my first language when i figured out how to play the piano when I was 3. It taught me how to transmute thoughts and feelings into stories that could be seen, heard, and felt.

Dance taught me discipline, expression, and presence. Long before I composed music, I learned to tell stories through movement.

I create worlds through music, film, writing, and visual + sonic design. Art is how I make the invisible visible, the imagined material, the unheard or unspoken felt.

Teaching was something I never planned to do. My ballet teacher told me I have the soul of a teacher and handed me a group of toddlers to teach music + dance and 25+ years later, here I am.

As a non-judgmental witness to your journey, our work together is very much built on the foundation of deep listening and allowing the soul to reveal itself in a safe environment.

From decades of teaching emerged the Tiny Human Spirit™ Philosophy —a simple way of leading and living from the tiny human spirit with curiosity, compassion + courage.

I curate spaces where people feel safe to gather, create, and belong. Every room tells a story. Every experience has a soul. Every sound has an audience.
