When I want something, I go get it. I taught myself to build my own AI agents, created my first digital product from scratch, and helped grow sales 18% at a jewelry brand. I bring that same drive to every team I'm part of.

I grew up in Hong Kong, a city that always feels a few years ahead of everywhere else, and it shaped how I think. I'm a city kid at heart, now based in Toronto, and I'm a tech and AI person who loves to do business.

AI clicked for me when I realized it could turn work that used to take days into hours. It teaches me things faster than any course ever has, and it helped me build a full website without writing the code by hand. As long as I know what I want and how it should work, AI handles the heavy lifting, and I review everything before it goes out. That's when I knew we were in a new era.

So I built my own system. I run a set of personal AI agents shaped around how I work. One sends me a daily brief of my tasks, the news, and my emails. Another works as my assistant, saving notes to Notion, tracking my finances, reminding me what's coming up, and answering anything I ask it.

Almost everything I know about AI I taught myself, from how the models actually work to how to prompt them well. That led to my first digital product, a prompt pack for students, with packs for other professions on the way. I'm also learning Python and Swift, and I set up my own payments through Gumroad and Stripe as a first step toward building a business.

My background is in marketing and sales, and I'm drawn to all kinds of business opportunities. What ties it all together is that AI is part of everything I do. I'm also teaching myself finance and investing, starting with my Bloomberg Market Concepts and Finance Fundamentals certifications, and I still shoot photo and video, a skill that matters more every year.
