About
I live in Singapore and build software for a living, currently on the messaging team at TikTok. This is my personal corner of the internet: a place for the things I make, learn, and keep coming back to.
Now
Software Engineer at TikTok, in Singapore.
Backend engineer on the Direct Messaging team. The real-time infra that keeps conversations working for a billion-ish users — I help make sure it stays that way.
Before
I flip 1s and 0s for a living. Seven companies in eight years — not because I get bored, but because the interesting problems kept being somewhere else.

Writing
I write about what I'm learning: software, the things I build, and what I pick up along the way.

Photographs
I keep photographs of places that catch my eye.
-
Trezr
I stopped giving my bank credentials to apps, then built the thing I actually wanted: a net worth tracker that lives on my device and never phones home.
