About

• I was born in 1997 and grew up in northern Taiwan in a middle-income family. My parents worked steady jobs and cared about saving money, finishing homework, and not buying things we did not need. We were comfortable, not rich. The rule was simple: do your part, stay honest, do not make life harder for other people.
• School was normal Taiwanese school: exams, bento boxes, cramming for tests, and pretending I was not tired. I liked math and computers more than memorizing poems. My teachers knew which subjects I cared about.
• In high school I picked the science track because I wanted problems with right answers. Wrong answers still happened. At least they were honest.
• I studied Information Engineering (資訊工程) at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University from 2014 to 2018. University taught me data structures, databases, and how to survive group projects where one person disappears before the demo. I was often the person who stayed late to fix the demo when the Wi-Fi died.
• After graduation I joined TPIsoftware (昕力資訊), a Taiwan enterprise digital transformation company building AI-enabled software across finance, insurance, HR, content management, and mobility-from API platforms and intelligent customer service to RPA and CMS products. I went to the office every day for about three years as a web application developer, building internal tools, content systems, and web applications that had to work inside real approval chains. I learned who signs off on production deploys, how legacy processes hide inside "temporary" tools, and why a "small update" can mean three departments and a compliance review.
• In 2021 I joined Lucid Modules, a remote consulting and development team serving clients worldwide: custom web features, performance work, PWA and Web 3D, and API integrations. From New Taipei I spent about four years shipping production software, performance fixes, and integrations, often for clients several time zones away. The team was distributed from day one; I learned to write clearly, record decisions, and show progress without someone standing behind my chair.
• Remote work also taught me typhoon-day etiquette: if the internet stays up, you are online. If it does not, you message the team and eat whatever is in the fridge. Taiwan runs on this unspoken contract.
• Weekends I try to hike somewhere simple like 象山 or a trail in Yangmingshan. I am not an athlete. I am a person who stares at screens too much and needs stairs to remind him he has legs.
• I still meet friends at night markets when everyone is free, which is never, but we try. Talking over food is cheaper than therapy and tastes better.
• Around 2023 I started using AI tools for my own work: drafts, research, boring refactors. For clients I only add AI if they can explain what it does and how to turn it off. If they cannot explain it, we fix the process first.
• In 2024 I took a short trip to Japan. Mostly trains, food, and two days without opening my laptop. On day three I missed my IDE a little. That is how you know the break worked.
• I once fixed a production bug on a storm day off while half the team was offline. Nobody called me a hero. The client just needed the system back. That was enough.
• The project I am quietly proud of is not a flashy demo. It is a custom web app a business owner overseas still runs daily months after launch. Reliable beats impressive in my line of work.
• In late 2025 I started working directly with business owners on custom software, automation, and AI integration. The best meetings start with a real workflow: what breaks, what costs time, and what should still work when I am not on the call.
• Today I live in New Taipei. Same job: listen, build, document, support.

Ask me about the demo that died because nobody seeded the database, the client who trusted me only after version two, and the night market that ruined my diet for a week.
