With a background in both physical and digital product experiences, Chunti is interested in creating thoughtful systems that balance usability, aesthetics, and real-world constraints. Her design process combines user-centered research, visual storytelling, material exploration, and iterative problem-solving.
Currently, she works with Hesperios in New York as a Product Development & Light Assembly Intern, supporting modular lighting products through prototyping, fit evaluation, technical documentation, vendor communication, packaging research, and production workflows.
Her past experience includes working as an eVTOL Industrial Design Assistant at the Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, where she supported aircraft concept development through research, modeling, rendering, and material experimentation.
Chunti’s exhibition work includes ArtExpo New York, where she was selected for the Solo Artist section to present a dedicated booth of original lighting and sculptural design work. She has also held a solo exhibition at MORA Art Museum, presenting paintings and 3D works focused on interdisciplinary design and visual storytelling.
