Prior to founding Bridge, she published widely on ecological and economic development, and she served as an adviser to many international organizations, focusing on design, development and sustainable cities around the world. Her experience also extends to the classroom, having taught in primary, middle and secondary schools in both China and the US, as well as in the university lecture halls of the University of California, Berkeley.
