Occupation:Art & Design teacher

What is your memorable East-Meet-West moment? I was born in Guangzhou China and moved to Vancouver Canada when I was 11. I am the hybrid of eastern and western cultures.

Last year, during the time when I was pursuing my interior design master's degree in London, I participated in Belgium's tourist center reconstruction project.
