I was Technical Staff and Founding Growth/Developer Relations (7th hire) at TensorZero, an AI infra seed-startup (raised $7.3 M, FirstMark/Bessemer Ventures). I helped scale the user base including Fortune 10 and frontier startup including Hinge, UnitedHealthcare, Profound, and Comcast; and did everything brand strategy, built over 5k+ audience across channels, community, and narrative storytelling.

Previously

I come from technical roots including product at Google's drone delivery moonshot (Wing) and years of applied ML and hardware research across various labs.

Creative tech

I also love creative technology and pushing bounds of interaction. Outside of work, I've shown laser-cut sculptures that ended up at the World Trade Center. I also co-founded the inagural 200+ person Keeping It Urban summit, bootstrapped $10k, backed by ex-CTO@Twitter, with speakers including Head of Global AI @ Samsung, Founder @Foursquare and VP@PBS.

Outside of work

I'm solo-trekking— 25+ countries, most recently Nepal and Guatemala. ★ I'm design-obsessed, community-driven, love urban planning, good storytelling,and almost always listening to Acquired or Freakonomics while working with my hands!

Gallery Installation

Aging Out of Place

Participatory mahjong installation on NYC Chinatown elderly; shown at World Trade Center, BRIC Brooklyn, Next City News, CUNY and Northwestern.

Inspired by mahjong— a game of social connection in Chinese culture but also a symbol of the growing gambling addiction due to social isolation in Chinatown— this piece recreates a portrait of NYC Chinatown using laser-etched mahjong tiles of landmarks and elderly residents. This piece centers the struggles of elderly in New York City's Chinatown to age in place, focusing on themes of immigration, isolation, and challenges of aging in a city amid gentrification and poverty. It aims to invite reflection on how we can protect ethnic communities, especially those assisting immigrants age in place, and also how we can better care for the elders in our own lives.

If They Never Left

What would our lives have looked like if our parents had never left our homeland? This piece explores the alternate timeline from past, present, to future. It centers the communal nature of food in Hong Kong versus the individual meals I grew up with in the West. Through scenes of my would be life, I reveal the loss of community, roots, and a home that never was as diaspora children..
