- Profile
-
I am a Lecturer in Work Psychology. Before joining the Management School in 2019, I was an Assistant Professor in Psychology at the Education º£½ÇÉçÇø of Hong Kong.
I completed my PhD at Lancaster º£½ÇÉçÇø, UK and my postdoctoral training at Carnegie Mellon º£½ÇÉçÇø, US.
My program of research focuses on identifying the cognitive factors that influence individual and group problem solving, particularly for problems requiring creativity and innovation.
I also examine how solutions to these problems can be facilitated through the use of different approaches, e.g., incubation, sleep, and task-switching.

My primary research focuses on examining cognitive processes underlying creative problem solving, and identifying ways to manipulate these processes to facilitate creative thinking at both individual and group levels.
