Amanda graduated from university in 2005 with a Degree in Architecture. Since then, Miss Liang had started her career as an architect in major Western architecture design firms. Now she is a business developer to the largest private owned design institute in China. After a few year of networking, Amanda has established contact with a number of renounced western designers and good relationships with many world leading design firms. Throughout the years, it has come to Miss Liang’s awareness that the lack of communication opportunity in second tier universities in second tier China cities; for that course, she had founded FACE Plan which stands for "Foreign Architect College Experience Plan" in 2008 which aims to encourage western designers to give lectures in different universities voluntarily. She also built a website as the platform to promote the idea of “FACE PLAN”. The website is www.faceplanchina.com.
 
From 2008 to now, she has succeeded in organizing lectures and workshop in 7 different universities with 12 brilliant presenters from world leading design firms. The participated universities are in Sichuan, Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Gansu province, etc. Meanwhile, she builds the bridge between universities and western design firms, as a result, those firms could set up internship positions for students from the participated universities.
