Her research focus to connect, compare and contrast the east and west culture through an Asian's lens.

Elaine embraced the embraced the constructivism in constructing personal knowledge through multi-disciplinary learning (fashion, costume, information technology, museum studies and user experience) and my previous career experiences for an unique and interdisciplinary knowledge building and contribution.

Elaine's short-term goal is to keep up the creative scholarship to transform cultural-based research into meaningful designs by digital technologies for cultural preservation. Her long-term goal is to be an educator to employ different information technologies in enriching next generation's global cultural perspective and avoiding cultural appropriations.
