Writing
I write when an idea feels useful enough to share, especially around developer tools, best practices, and lessons from building real projects.

Professional snapshot
Three tracks, one standard
A production role, installable developer tools, and peer-reviewed research — held to the same bar: understand the constraints, make the tradeoffs visible, ship something people can evaluate.

How I got from here to here
I’m a Senior Software Engineer at MediaTek, where my work is moving deeper into platform and systems engineering across areas such as UEFI and USB. My broader engineering background spans full-stack products, APIs, databases, and production interfaces built with TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, and Python.
Outside my core role, I build and maintain open-source developer tools across npm and PyPI. npx-vibe brings evidence-first review to package execution, Custom DL Optimizer qualifies PyTorch inference plans against real workloads, and ResearchPlot turns publication guidance into repeatable, source-backed checks. I approach these as maintained products: with documentation, release workflows, safety boundaries, and explainable decisions.
Research is the third part of my work. I have published applied machine-learning studies across EEG-based ADHD detection, sensor-fusion activity recognition, medical screening, and manufacturing inspection. Across systems, products, and research, the principle is the same: understand the constraints, make tradeoffs visible, and ship work that people can evaluate and trust.
Beyond code
Things that keep me curious
Reading
Some books that stay close to my desk: Tuesdays with Morrie, Atomic Habits, The Alchemist, Building a Second Brain, and Discipline is Destiny.
Anime
Stories like Your Name, Garden of Words, A Silent Voice, Jujutsu Kaisen, and I Want to Eat Your Pancreas are part of how I unwind.
