Ruiqian (Cassie) Wang.

I’m Ruiqian瑞芊, a designer and researcher working at the intersection of HCI, design, and education technology. I study how interactive and AI-powered systems can enhance learning, well-being, and creative expression, and I translate these insights into practical tools and prototypes. I work with interdisciplinary teams in research and practice, bridging design methods with empirical inquiry.
