I have over a decade of experience in managing and delivering educational and cultural projects that bridge the gap between the UK and Asia. I hold an MA in Chinese Studies from The University of Manchester, and speak four languages, including Mandarin Chinese to HSK5 level. As the former Institute Manager at the Manchester China Institute, I led a team of talented staff and researchers to develop and execute a range of programmes, events, and initiatives that fostered better collaboration, understanding, and exchange. In previous roles, I have focused on international student recruitment, EdTech development, research and design, and the production of materials to directly impact international curriculums.I am passionate about access to education, cultural exchange, and languages, and strive to pursue projects with lasting impact and value. The various roles I've undertaken consistently demonstrate an ability to build and develop fruitful partnerships and to lead teams to have a sustained and meaningful impact.
