I like building things within the intersection of art and technology—using emerging technologies to create something positive in the world. Growing up, I spent most of my time reading in libraries, playing sports outdoors, drawing in my sketchbooks. In my early 20s, I circumnavigated the world for 3 years while working on my startup as a digital nomad. I'm driven by adventure and navigating the unknown. My passion in life is to make things that are creative and meaningful. Currently building realities through my XR studio, Metanaut. Taiwanese-Canadian.
