AI-forward builder · learning in public

I build systems with AI to run real life, learn something new every week, and help other people do the same.

The short version

Born in Paris to Chinese parents. Based upstate. I run production for a touring show and spend the rest of my time turning manual work into systems that run themselves.

The tools change every month. So I keep learning, in the open, and I write down what worked so the next person skips the pain.

How I help

Build it once.
Then bring people with you.

01

Build systems

Turn the thing you do by hand every day into something that runs without you. Bots, automations, pipelines, homelab.

02

Learn in public

New model, new framework, new tool. I try it on a real problem, break it, and show the part that actually worked.

03

Teach & share

Every system gets written down in plain language so anyone can copy it. No gatekeeping, no jargon tax.

04

Apply AI for real

Not demos. AI wired into daily life where it saves real hours, with a human keeping a hand on the wheel.
