Background

I am the Senior Editor, Arts & Culture at Tatler Hong Kong, specialising in film, visual art and performing arts. I won gold at the WAN-IFRA Asian Media Awards for my 2021 feature on the waves of hate crimes targeting Asian Americans. I have interviewed A-list artists and filmmakers, such as Oscar winner Chlóe Zhao, Cannes Best Director Park Chan-wook, Golden Horse winner Sylvia Chang and Ann Hui, In the Mood for Love cinematographer Christopher Doyle, painter Françoise Gilot, and Pachinko author Min Jin Lee. I also cover social issues such as LGBTQ+ rights in Asia.

I am the founding president of the Hong Kong Arts Festival's Young Friends Alumni Association, which brings together more than five decades of the festival's alumni and promotes arts education and development in Hong Kong.

I earned a master's in English at University College London. My award winning poems and short stories have been published by Oxford Magazine, Cha: An Asian Literary Journal, Voice and Verse, among others. My bylines include HKDiscovery Magazine, Asian Review of Books, Hong Kong Design Institute’s SIGNED, Time Out HK, Cathay, PlaysToSee.com, Hong Kong English Language Drama and Agora.

Aside from arts and culture, I am also a keen travel writer. My wanderlust was first fuelled by the Mighty Rovers Antarctica Expedition in 2010, and the Semester at Sea Spring Voyage, through which I travelled to 11 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and America, in 2016. Both experiences were supported by scholarships.
