He is a contributor to NYFW, L'Officiel, and Vogue Italia. His work was featured in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, ELLE, Cosmopolitan, etc.

More than ten years of practicing both traditional Chinese and western percussion instruments, the opportunity opened for him to join the orchestra and he has become an award-winning performer.

This was the motivational key to combine the two cultures into his photography work.
