With 10 years of experience in environmental conservation and community development, she designs and implements programs to protect the grassland regions of northern China and foster rural economic development.  An advocate for an ecosystems services-economy, she assisted in implementing the Ecological Management and Protection Agreement, designed to support rural development and environmental protection through livestock cooperatives and eco-tourism activities.

Other notable work includes the sandstorm mitigation project in Inner Mongolia and international study on national park system management.
