With over six years of professional experience, I'm currently leading environmentally and socially conscious projects at The Urbanist Limited. My core competencies include entrepreneurship, leadership, and strategic operations, all underpinned by my commitment to sustainability and inclusive design. These values resonate deeply with The Urbanist Limited's mission, and I strive to merge diverse perspectives into our work, ensuring our designs serve both human and ecological communities.Recently, my role has centered on transformative projects like the Hong Kong Municipal Solid Waste Charging Scheme, where we reimagined waste management through user-centered design. Collaboration with government stakeholders and rigorous user testing were key to our success. This experience, combined with my MBA studies in sustainability, has sharpened my skills in strategy formulation and driving responsible operations, reflecting my dedication to impactful environmental stewardship.
