Marketing. Data. Product.Cross-functional.

Currently completing an MSc in Strategic Communications & Society at the London School of Economics, building on a journalism foundation from Nanjing University and exchange studies at UC Berkeley and the University of Stirling.

Working at the intersection of marketing strategy, AI-enabled content production, product thinking, and data — prototyping WeChat ecosystem experiences at Tencent WXG, building AI product operations SOPs at ByteDance, supporting a 100,000+ impression AI competition campaign at Baidu, and delivering consulting frameworks at BlackMont.

Bilingual in Mandarin and English with strong cross-cultural communication skills, I move comfortably across Eastern and Western market contexts, bringing structured thinking and communications instinct to brand, product operations, and business consulting work.

Projects

Selected work

Product Design · AI · Web Platform

ClubMatch

An AI-powered university club recruitment platform connecting students with the right clubs through intelligent matching — addressing the information asymmetry and workflow inefficiency that defines traditional campus recruitment.

The gap

  • Students rely on scattered offline channels — posters, booths, word-of-mouth — with no structured way to compare or discover clubs
  • Clubs manage recruitment through paper forms, WeChat groups, and manual Excel tracking, creating high operational overhead
  • Poor matching leads to blind applications and low retention — students join clubs that don't fit their interests or schedule

The platform

  • AI interest profiling matches students to clubs based on interests, schedule, and personality — with a one-click reusable application
  • Three-sided platform: students discover and apply; clubs manage candidates and interviews; schools oversee the full process
  • Full workflow from discovery → application → screening → interview scheduling → acceptance notification

AI Content Production · PRD · MVP Prototype

AI Video Collaboration Workbench

Developed during my Tencent WXG internship from real AIGC production pain points: repeated trial-and-error, fragmented assets, scattered feedback, and version-tracking friction. This link is an interactive MVP prototype, built to validate core workflow concepts such as project-level asset management, prompt reuse, segment canvases, external generation handoff, object-based comments, and task notifications.

Strategy · Consulting · Deliverable

Valiha Diffusion — Clean Cooking Fuel Strategy

8-week BlackMont Consulting engagement for Valiha Diffusion (BIO-KALA bamboo charcoal, DRC & Madagascar). Delivered five workstreams — market diagnosis, 3-scenario financial model, investor narrative, funding pathway (grants / impact equity / blended finance), and a 12–24 month growth roadmap — culminating in a board-ready strategic package for client fundraising.

Data Modelling · Pricing Optimisation · Distinction

Drink Product Design & Pricing Optimisation

LSE Marketing Analytics course project awarded Distinction, where I served as project lead. Based on 149 consumer survey responses, applied regression, conjoint analysis, and discrete choice modelling to quantify product-attribute utility, price sensitivity, and willingness to pay; built a price-revenue curve to recommend the optimal product configuration and pricing strategy. Coordinated task allocation, timeline management, and deliverable review across an international team, aligning data-processing standards and analysis logic to deliver the project on time.

Short Film · Content Creation · Award-winning

Fall in Love with Nanjing, Again

Proposed the creative concept, conducted research, and executed copywriting, dubbing, and editing for a short video showcasing Nanjing's historic alleys — collaborated with a team to win third place in a national collegiate short video competition.

Data Journalism · Consumer Insights · Market Analysis

China's Sportswear Market: Who Wins the Race?

Scraped and analysed Lululemon-related posts on Xiaohongshu for keyword frequency, benchmarked pricing across 11 sportswear brands, and examined supply chain dynamics — producing data visualisations on consumer behaviour and competitive landscape in China's ¥453.4B sportswear market.
