After graduating from high school, I attended a four-year teacher training university in China. Following graduation, I worked as a middle school art teacher for seven years before immigrating to the United States. In the U.S., I earned a master's degree in Digital Media Art and returned to Beijing, China, in 2012 due to marital circumstances. I loved animals. From 2012 to 2018, I volunteered for an animal adoption agency, where I cared for stray animals in their care and also studied and obtained a pet grooming license. This allowed me to groom these stray animals to increase their chances of being adopted. In 2018, I returned to the United States and joined a non-profit animal rescue organization primarily composed of compassionate individuals from China and Taiwan. This organization helps find adoptive families in the United States for small animals rescued in China. As a volunteer, I provided temporary shelter for some of these animals and cared for them during their stay.
