Community

I try to make the needs of my communities visible, and use what I learn to give back.

My local community

Jinan

Growing up among Jinan’s springs and lakes made water pollution a local concern. My water quality vessel began with that close-to-home problem.

My junior high alma mater

Giving back to where I started

Returning to share science through hands-on demonstrations is a way of giving back to the school that first encouraged my curiosity.

My high school community

Shandong Experimental High School

At Shandong Experimental High School, planning events and listening to classmates helped me turn student ideas into shared opportunities.

Beyond my immediate communities

People technology often overlooks

My assistive prototypes, deepfake-fraud research, and environmental work focus on needs that are easy to overlook. They are starting points, with much left to learn from the people affected.
