hii i'm Shawn.

currently: product manager building internal tools at Sea Labs. I'm developing DCIM software to support data center operations.

previously: forward deployed engineer at Locofy (Frontend AI B2B Software), software engineer at Kisi (nyc)

Outside of work, I build AI for everyday use and other side projects. In the past, I've worked on Saas projects and participated in hackathons. In my free time I love reading, writing, watching anime, history, running. I studied CS at NUS.

I love king oyster mushroom and blue pea vanilla ice cream. Space and sci-fi enjoyer.

sidequests:

  • Bigwall - AI knowledge hub for your internet artefacts and ideas; curation engine to build good taste

some things I believe:

  • Make it exist first, then make it better later. The first version is always shit. It will become better with iteration.
  • Never take the easy option. Doing hard things often is exercise for the soul, makes you more resilient.
  • The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. - Steve Jobs
  • We are defined by our choices, not our past. Every moment is a chance to become someone new. - Jean Paul Satre
  • Be kind to others. Super difficult but something I want to strive towards.
