​

Born in Shanghai and raised in Los Angeles by overworked parents who don’t speak English, Jane was a latchkey kid who spent way too much time absorbing television she wasn’t allowed to watch. Needless to say, she was intrigued by the power of media at a young age.

​

Drawn to topics of empathy, connection, and representation on(+off!)-screen, Jane has a passion for showcasing people and narratives that are too often overlooked. Her poetic style and visual language invite the viewer in to peer through a different lens, while cinematically unfolding stories through intimate emotions and evocative movement.

​

Her work has been showcased on CBS, Buzzfeed, Nowness, Booooooom, Vimeo Staff Picks, and has received 5 Clio Sports awards for her Chevrolet Goalkeepers Campaign. Most recently, she was awarded the AICP+DGA’s Commercial Directors Diversity Program (CDDP) fellowship for 2019, was featured in SHOOT 2019 New Directors Showcase, and won a 1.4 Award for her US Paralympics spot featuring Paralympian Colleen Young.

​

Jane’s curiosity and deep fascination with human psychology push her towards socially conscious work, because she believes impactful films can change the world.
