About

From ecosystem builder to indie developer

5 Years at Huawei

From carrier networks to cloud ecosystems, from Shenzhen to Singapore to Jakarta. One lesson learned: a platform's value lies in helping everyone in the ecosystem succeed.

AI Builder

After leaving Huawei, started building products independently with Vibe Coding. No code written by hand β€” turning ideas into reality with AI and cloud computing experience.

"Make information flow more efficiently" β€” a question I keep exploring.

What drives me

Build tools that change behavior
Technology matters when it gives ordinary people capabilities they never had before.
"What not to do" matters more than "what to do"
Clear boundaries create real focus.
Information flow shapes the world
From cloud ecosystems to LLMs β€” how do we move knowledge between minds more efficiently?
Meaning is found through experience
The meaning of life is to find the meaning of life.
