A builder and storyteller, curious by default.

I’m Sophia, based in Hong Kong. I work where technology, business and human stories meet.

What I believe

“Do the right things. Build the right products.”

A note from an early mentor that still stays with me. Three ideas follow from it.

  1. Find what matters. Look closely. Stay curious. Notice the people, needs and ideas others might overlook.
  2. Build what is useful. Start with real problems, make something people can use, and keep improving it.
  3. Help it travel further. Connect the right product with the right people, through thoughtful storytelling, technology and distribution.

What energizes me

Looking closely at a real problem, making something people can use, and helping it reach the people who need it. I’m excited by the possibilities of AI, but even more interested in the human needs and useful products behind the technology.

How I work

I do my best work with ownership, trust and room to experiment, alongside people who know their craft, speak up and work through problems rather than pass them on. I care more about outcomes than appearances.

What makes work meaningful

What I’m curious about

How ideas become products, and how products become meaningful to people. Outside work, I’m usually exploring a new city, collecting stories or making something small to see if others find it useful.
