About

I'm a tech enthusiast with an anthropology background. I enjoy growing things from zero to one, and one to the top.

I'm just observing, learning and doing. I've been working since age 14, mostly alongside entrepreneurs and investors, to help their businesses become both respected and valuable to some folks.

I'm a team member at Menlo Research, a robotics company building the brains of robots.

Current curiosities:

Economics: I'm learning it to play big
Humanoid Robots: I'm learning how robots will work in the world designed for humans
中文 - Learning Chinese: Hardware speaks it, and I want to eavesdrop
