HI, I’M NINA WU (she/they)

I’m a queer, second-gen, Chinese-American, interdisciplinary dancer and artist. I’m also an experienced learning leader with 10+ years in edtech – building innovative and engaging learning experiences through gamification, storytelling, and multi-media platforms.

I studied Math, Visual Art, and Education at Duke. I was a classroom teacher, worked in an art gallery, designed math games and curriculum, and now direct the learning experience and content strategy for a wilderness health app. I dance professionally and continue to make art when it calls.

I believe everything can be a source of inspiration, every experience is in conversation with each other, that it’s all connected. I operate from an interdisciplinary and intersectional place, which is why this site has a little bit everything - there’s math in my art, dance in my math, and art in my dance. But it’s all in service of connecting to magic, cultivating community, and dismantling systems of oppression. So whatever reason brought you here, may you find what you’re looking for, along with an unexpected nugget of something else 💫
