Her aesthetic practice is a combination of Eastern and Western art styles. She has published different types of artworks along with several articles about art. She enjoys working on visual arts such as digital art, sand art and calligraphy with young scholars.

Recently, she has received Trauma-Informed Art Practice training at YA which inspires her to use Chinese calligraphy as a silent approach for students to manage themselves. To achieve this goal, she has started to create Chinese calligraphy works that integrates English interpretation. Delightedly, she sees that her students don't feel as if they are strangers to Chinese calligraphy anymore because they understand what their teaching has created and become inspired to create their own Chinese calligraphy.
