More about me

I currently live in San Francisco. I’m from Massachusetts, and have lived in New York, London, Shanghai, and Beijing.

Most recently, I’ve been a consultant with technology companies strategizing how to productize their various R&D outputs.  I’ve worked with engineering and product teams in consumer tech, robotics, crypto, and synthetic biology. I also provide research and content strategy for start-ups, foundations, and artists working in machine learning, semiconductors and accelerated computing, and Chinese tech policy.

I’m a Yenching Scholar, having studied Law at Peking University. I specialized in examining China’s value and supply chains for their semiconductor and AI industries, as well as China’s emerging AI governance regime. I also researched the works of theorists Jiang Shigong and Zhang Qianfan, and read Daoist philosophy extensively. 

I received a BA in Political Economy from UC Berkeley. 

In my spare time, I create prototypes of speculative applications and experiment with LLMs.

I live a second life as a musician, releasing music here, and working with my friend’s little sister, flowerovlove.  I used to work for a nightclub in Shanghai.
