About
We are a small team reimagining the future of camera and social online. We are leveraging computer vision, NLP and creative process to bring more joy to people's daily life. The current team is made up of ex-Snap, ex-Google employees and Stanford alumni. Message me directly if you are interested. Before this, I led Discover and Stories engineering at Snap, helped to build pro marketplace at Houzz, worked on Brand Ads and Youtube Monetization at Google, and conducted research on NLP and ranking from USC/ISI to Penn State and Microsoft Research Asia.
