Founder of Taiwante LLC
I curate tea, craft teaware, and tell story about teaโ
for enjoying beauty and aroma,
and to build a setting where โdrinking teaโ ...
becomes a beginning of understanding, of creating together.

About me
As a certified tea sommelier, industrial design researcher, and potter, I bring a multidisciplinary approach to the world of Taiwanese teaโblending sensory expertise, aesthetic design, and cultural storytelling.
I specialize in helping individuals, brands, and creative teams discover and share authentic Taiwanese tea through thoughtfully designed experiences and curated sourcing support.
Start Your Tea Journey
Curated Tea Selections
Hand-picked Taiwanese teas sourced directly from trusted growers, chosen for their flavor, craftsmanship, and story.
Tea Tasting Collaborations
Host or co-create guided tasting experiences that invite your audience to slow down, connect, and explore.
Experience Design
As a designer and potter, I craft immersive tea moments that engage all sensesโpairing tea with vessel, setting, and narrative.
Sourcing & Consulting for Brands
Whether you're launching a tea line or enriching a retail space, I offer strategic guidance and connect you with reliable Taiwanese producers.
I come from a family rooted in tea and herbs in Taiwan.
Since childhood, Iโve known how to recognize the fragrance and lingering notes of tea, and I understand how different climates shape the character of each leaf.
So I chose to become someone who tells the story of teaโ
As Product design ph.D., I shape clay, firing teapots and cups, studying flow, wall thickness, the feeling in the hand, and finding the best tea taste.
I design teaware and write narratives of tea.
I converse with farmers, resonate with craftsmanship, and share with those who drink.
Tea is the gentlest ad powerful force
Drinking tea alone can be quiet and calmingโlike a soft kind of self-repair.
But drinking tea with others can solve many things.
Language softens, the atmosphere opens, and within the space between sips, dialogue slows down, allowing values to be heard once again.
