Head of Cross-border Marketing @ GIMC

Born in Guangzhou, educated in New York City, and seasoned across the world.

Bio

With 8+ years in global integrated marketing, working with brands like BYD, IHG, OPPO, and HUAWEI across markets that span from the deep deserts of Saudi Arabia to the white oceans of South America.

I'm not just a marketeer - I'm the person who figures out why your Saudi campaign isn't converting and fixes it before the next flight lands. Currently leading international business development at GIMC, China's largest advertising groups.

When I'm not just optimizing campaigns, I'm building AI agents and figuring out how to automate everything around YOU. I believe the best marketing is built by people who understand both the spreadsheets and the story.
