Hi, I'm

Product Manager · Data-Driven Builder

I manage products that power Azure's infrastructure at scale, and build things on the side that solve problems I care about.

About Me

I'm a Product Manager at Microsoft, working on Azure's Specialized Compute team in Seattle. I own resiliency, capacity health, and efficiency for a segment of Azure's specialized infrastructure — the kind of systems that enterprise customers depend on and never want to think about.

Before Microsoft, I built across the stack — REST APIs and data pipelines at Credit Suisse, analytics dashboards and R applications at Bain Capital. I studied Computer Science and Business Administration at Northeastern University, where the co-op program let me test-drive careers before committing to one.

I grew up in Singapore and moved to the US for college. Outside of work, I build side projects around things I'm genuinely curious about — F1 strategy, personal finance optimization, and whatever data problem catches my attention next.

Projects

Things I build when I'm not at work.

F1 Live Strategy Advisor
A real-time race strategy tool that answers the question every F1 fan debates: should the driver pit now or extend the stint? It ingests lap-by-lap timing data from the OpenF1 API, models tire degradation from historical races, and computes undercut/overcut windows against the car ahead — surfacing a strategy recommendation with a confidence score, live during the race.
PythonOpenF1 APITire Degradation ModelingReal-Time Analytics
Credit Card Rewards Intelligence API
An API that takes your actual monthly spend by category and tells you exactly which credit card — or combination of two — maximizes your annual rewards. Not just 'use Amex Gold,' but: 'You'd earn $340 more per year because 60% of your spend is dining and groceries, where Amex Gold earns 4x.' Handles complex reward structures, rotating categories, and sign-up bonuses.
