About Me
I am currently pursuing an MS in Computer Science at Columbia University through the MS Bridge Program, with an expected graduation date of May 2024. Prior to Columbia, I had spent over 20 years in the healthcare and financial service industries as an operator and an investor. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Classics from Harvard University in 1999 and an MBA from Harvard Business School in 2005. Born and raised in Hong Kong, I currently live in New York City with my wife Hannah and two sons Miles and Oliver.

About My Project
The goal of my project is to develop a metric learning algorithm that transforms high-dimensional data into clusters based on some provided measures of similarity, but retains the structure of each cluster to allow subsequent exploration of subgroup features.
