My leadership philosophy focuses on empowering team autonomy and individual independence. Ultimate goal is to expand scale and impact through guiding the evolution of technologies / processes and growth of team members. I deeply understand the individuality of engineers - their motivations, interests, things of value, career goals, personal goals, project interests, preferred ways of giving and receiving feedback among many things. Overall, my management philosophy includes a customer-centric, people-focused, and result-oriented approach to work and leadership. My experience of over 15 years spans different startup stages across different sectors in Silicon Valley, Silicon Beach, and "Taiwan's Silicon Valley” contributing to a diversified global experience. I prioritize the technology goals with a company's overall vision. I maximizes both local and global tech teams with my skills and experiences with product, project, and software leadership. I drive technology initiatives in higher level design and architecture discussions. When necessary, I'm comfortable with and fully enjoy getting deep into the code. I also communicate and collaborate well with cross-functional or non-technical stakeholders.
