About Me

Hey there! Welcome to my website. My name is Ying Yee Wong, and I'm a master's student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  I have lived in Hong Kong and Shanghai, China. The cross-cultural experience allowed me to gain a unique perspective and understand the nuances of different environments.

I have always loved traveling and exploring new places. I also enjoy doing workouts and dancing ballet when I'm not on the move.

Driven by a passion for storytelling, I have recently expanded my skill set to include documentary production. Through learning the art of videography and editing, I have discovered new avenues for engaging with audiences and creating impactful narratives. This expansion into multimedia journalism has allowed me to tell stories in a visually compelling manner, effectively capturing the essence of my subjects.

My work has had featured in reputable publications, including local newspapers and TV stations in Hong Kong and mainland China. With a foundation in traditional journalism and a growing proficiency in multimedia storytelling, I strive to bridge cultural gaps, challenge stereotypes, and promote empathy through my work.
