His enthusiasm for art and design can be seen in his innovative works, which have a focus on multicultural diversity — an appreciation that develop from his education in both Hong Kong and United Kingdom.

Since 2015, he has been a visiting lecturer teaching BA (Hons) in Communication Design at School of Design, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. He believes that nurturing the next generation is the social responsibility of a designer.
