👋 Hello!

I am passionate about innovating at the intersection of technology, humanity, and business. I aspire to contribute to the advancement of autonomous vehicles as a means of democratizing mobility for everyone.

I returned to campus and became a graduate student at MIT in the summer of 2024. Here at MIT, I am pursuing dual degrees—a Master of Science (M.S.) in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at the MIT School of Engineering and an M.B.A. at the MIT Sloan School of Management. This unique dual-degree experience is made possible through the pioneering MIT Leaders for Global Operations (LGO) program.

Prior to MIT, I worked at SoundHound for six years on voice AI products. Specifically, I crafted many conversational AI capabilities across English and Chinese. Here are some examples:

• 🥪 Restaurant voice AI that answers phone calls or drive-thru orders 🗣️ “I want a number 2 sandwich foot long on wheat bread with no pickles” (Press Release)
• 🚙 In-car voice AI assistant shipped to Citroën Versailles C5 X in China 🗣️ “Roll up the windows and navigate to the nearest gas station” (Press Release)

Check out my photography works on my Instagram. (I may eventually add a Gallery section to this website but for now Instagram does the job.)

I have an obsession with 🚂 trains and overall transportation systems. I am an avid classical and jazz music listener. 🎶 I love singing some old standards, and I play the clarinet just okay. ⚽️ I play soccer when I’m feeling fit, but regardless, I always (painfully to say) support Manchester United. (GGMU!)
