Founder of Fluentide. Schwarzman Scholar.
I build tools for people learning languages. Outside that, I'm into film, stand-up, and theatre. I write here in Chinese and English about products, what I'm reading, and what I'm trying to figure out.
Building Fluentide and Aslan AI. Moving to Beijing in August for Schwarzman.
