Interests
I am passionate about the intersection of education and artificial intelligence. My current work explores how generative AI can transform teaching, learning, and research in higher education. I am particularly interested in AI literacy, ethical and responsible AI use, and supporting faculty development through practical, hands-on training.
I also enjoy designing curriculum that integrates AI tools to personalize learning and enhance student engagement. Beyond AI, I am deeply committed to intercultural learning and have taught internationally in Germany and China.
