What I’m doing now

Work

I am a full time engineer trying to make OpenTable.com slightly better. A couple months ago I switched to a new team. I am now mentoring new interns on my team while leading a project end-to-end. I haven’t been a tech lead for almost a year now. This is a refreshing learning experience to me.

Writing

I write a lot in both Chinese and English. For Chinese I write on my comics blog MangaTalk. For English, I keep a journal and I just published an article this month. I aim to carry this momentum forward.

Reading

I am reading two books: True Style by Bruce Boyer and Quiet by Susan Cain. I would like to read The Sciences of the Artificial by Herbert A. Simon after I’m done with the above.

Else

I aim to provide updates on this page at least once a month.

If you happen to be in the San Francisco Bay Area, please do get in touch with me. I would love to meet you.
