builds here.
I'm an AI product builder who trained as a systems engineer, a businessperson, and a classical painter. So I build tools that hold up, pay their way, and feel like someone cared.
Proof: BuoyBots · live, guardrail-tested AI intake for mental-health practices.

eight koi · kohaku, tancho, showa, yamabuki, asagi, sumi, two butterflies · they drift away from your cursor, unhurried
How it earns
International Business · study abroad, Việt Namwho the house is for.
Client economics, and a mission: underserved small businesses, especially the Vietnamese community.
How it feels
Four-year classical atelier · Gage Academy of Artthe light in the rooms.
Cast drawing, still life, oil: making something a human wants to touch.
Three educations that looked like three houses, until AI turned out to be the roof over all of them. + coding dojo · aggregate intellect · buildcamp → buoybots, the proof
the sand is raked every morning
draw in the sand · nudge the stones · they roll, gently · a jar of jam arrived around teatime
the engawa
Half past three.
The jar comes up out of the courtyard and onto the boards, where nothing is asked of it. For a while the low sun crosses the glass and goes all the way through. The one thing all day the light does not simply fall on.

BuoyBots
AI intake for mental-health practices. After-hours inquiries were dying in voicemail, each lost client worth $1,800+. BuoyBots answers first, screens gently, books the consult, and refuses what it shouldn't touch. Zero prior API experience to live-and-deployed in one week.

Hair Studio G10
A Vietnamese family-owned salon in Issaquah: 2,235 clients on the books, 68% of them one visit and gone. Built the marketing engine from nothing: AI-generated content, segmented email, Instagram & Facebook cadence, Google Business, and a win-back program aimed at 1,800+ lapsed clients to fill the quiet midweek chairs.
Battle On Therapy
A solo therapy practice for men of color and Asian American adults, carried from discovery to launch: brand, UX, copy, and Webflow build. Designed so the scroll itself feels like therapy: one page, darkness to clarity. The engagement that seeded BuoyBots' first pilot.
WeShine PDX
A Portland nonprofit building micro-villages for unsheltered adults. Recovered the site from a former board member's control and rebuilt the failing donation flow in time for Give!Guide season, clearing the way for gifts as large as $20K to land. Monthly care keeps it healthy: updates, security, backups, and a report written for humans.
Studio Lucky Bamboo
Seven years of client work, now focused on health & wellness practices: brand strategy through launch, and the growth retainers after. The agency has its own house; this one is the home.
