About Me

I have previously worked full-time at a small group at University of California - San Diego and helped an engineering-majority group of people advance their open-source platform for hearing-related research.

My other prior experiences in projects varies from product design, to website design and management, to project leading, and to editing video content.

I aim to continue solving complex problems in the world by:

  • immersing myself in social-technical systems
  • learning about the people within these systems
  • applying design thinking to figure out how existing systems can be improved for humanity
