I'm an engineer at TwelveLabs, where I work on Rodeo, a video editing tool built on our video cognition system. On the side I'm building buysignal, where agents help source and sell luxury handbags. Before that I did spatial reasoning research at AI4CE while studying CS at NYU.

I care about design engineering and training agents against real outcomes. I got into coding in 2015 by jailbreaking my iPhone 5s. In high school I swam competitively and posted best times of 23.32 in the 50m free (relay) and 29.63 in the 50m breast.

I'm optimistic about AI. What interests me is where it fits into everyday work. At buysignal, luxury resale still runs on spreadsheets, DMs, and laborious manual research. I'm building agents that take over that work.

我是 TwelveLabs 的软件工程师，负责 AI 视频编辑工具 Rodeo 的开发。同时我也在开发 buysignal，希望利用 AI 智能体帮助商家发现和采购奢侈品手袋，并完成销售。我曾在 NYU 学习计算机科学，并在 AI4CE 实验室做空间推理研究。

我很在意设计工程，以及如何让 AI 智能体对着真实世界的反馈持续学习和迭代。2015 年，我因为给自己的 iPhone 5s 越狱而开始接触编程，从此走上了这条路。

高中时期，我曾接受竞技游泳训练，50 米自由泳接力分段最好成绩 23.32 秒，50 米蛙泳最好成绩 29.63 秒。

我对 AI 的未来保持乐观，但相比技术本身，我更在意如何真正融入人们的日常工作。以 buysignal 为例，奢侈品转售行业至今仍有大量流程依赖 Excel 表格、私信沟通和繁琐的人工调研，而我正在尝试用 AI 智能体重新设计这些流程，让重复性的工作逐步实现自动化。
