关于

I currently work in quantitative trading at a prestigious hedge fund in Miami. Before moving into finance, I spent five years at HP’s Social Computing Lab, where my research spanned social networks, mechanism design, stochastic modeling, and the comparative study of Western and Japanese detective fiction. I still have a major soft spot for mathematical puzzles and challenging interview brainteasers.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me deep in a detective novel, on the badminton court, or tinkering with Claude Code on my Mac. I’m also an avid handheld gamer and a casual video watcher.

As a bibliophile, I gravitate toward classic “puzzlers” rather than modern suspense or thrillers; my heart belongs to the “impossible crime” subgenre. John Dickson Carr is my undisputed favorite, followed closely by Ellery Queen and Paul Halter. I’m also a devotee of the Japanese Shin Honkaku (新本格) movement, with a particular interest in the works of Tomoyuki Shirai.

I’ve also blended my interests into my own writing as the author of the wuxia-detective crossover novel, Flower of the Infernal Sea (冥海花).
