I didn't start out in design.

I studied finance, interned in journalism and advertising, then went into marketing, always circling the same question: how do you actually move people?

love exploring art museums

It took until my late twenties to name what I'd been chasing. I'm a maker at heart, I'd just been looking for the right medium.

That medium turned out to be software. Like Bob Baxley says, it isn't only a tool, it's a creative medium, and the people who make it carry real responsibility for how it lands.

It started early, though. In 6th grade my dad handed me a silver gadget iPod Shuffle with Faye Wong playing, and that tiny, impossibly sleek thing just stopped me.

I've been chasing that feeling ever since: not frictionless, just present.

Off the clock I'm deep in modern Chinese history, gender history, and Eileen Chang, where I learned to zoom out: nothing exists in a vacuum.

I think in systems, but I design for people, and I want whatever I build to feel as human as it is useful.

open to full-time roles + good conversations
