Fitness & Discipline

Training consistently is non-negotiable. It's not about aesthetics — it's about building the discipline that carries into everything else. The gym is where I practice showing up, especially on days I don't want to.

Music & Performance

Music has been part of my life since I can remember. I play the erhu (a Chinese traditional instrument), sing at a semi-professional level, and am learning guitar. Street busking is one of my favorite ways to connect with people — raw, unfiltered, and completely honest.

Reading & Reflection

I read across categories — product design, psychology, AI, business, philosophy. Reading is input. Writing is output. The combination is how I make sense of the world and form my own thinking.
