Student at Virginia Tech, seeking opportunities to develop my knowledge of the construction and building materials industries, with particular focus on using sustainable biomaterials in the process. Having grown up in Hong Kong, I came to Virginia to pursue a leading edge education in the use of, manufacture and management of sustainable biomaterials such as wood, bamboo, mycelium fibers in building housing and commercial projects of the future. My interest in this stems from the belief that the construction industry devoting technology and manpower into making buildings carbon sinks instead of carbon emitters, starting from the building materials, is an essential step in tackling climate change.
