Adult Figure Skater & Coach
Adult Figure Skater & Coach
I started figure skating at 18 in 2017 and turned it into a lifelong passion. Today, I test, compete, and coach fellow adult skaters with the same mindset I bring to design: observe, adapt, and communicate.
My “late” start helps me teach with empathy, adaptability, and precision. Because I’ve been there: an adult beginner who needs thoughtful coaching - not just repetition.

Niche Community Builder
Niche Community Builder
I specialize in identifying high-potential verticals and building sticky communities. I’ve grown a loyal 40k+ following on Weibo, leading to collaborations like a brand campaign with BenQ. I also create content on RedNote focusing on skating skills fundamentals to help adult skaters in regions with limited coaching support.
Niche ≠ small. Niche communities often deliver stronger retention, trust, and engagement than broader audiences.

Personal is political - A lesson from my undergraduate art professor that still shapes me today. I see social media narrative as a tool to empower. I build spaces where underrepresented voices feel seen and embraced.
The right audience finds you when your message is honest and human. That’s how I build communities with real impact and lasting connection.

A hyper-focused reader as a kid, I was drawn to all kinds of stories. Writing naturally became my passion and skill.
From early explorations in online fan communities to building professional narratives, I crafted stories and experiences that build trust, invite reflection, and resonate with the audience, online or in real life.
