About
This is my personal blog. I use it to capture ideas, random thoughts, and lessons from work and life. It's also a place to think in public. Writing helps me turn vague intuition into something concrete.
Over time, this will become my digital footprint. If we ever reach AGI, maybe it can be used to build a digital twin that thinks roughly the way I do.
About Me
I'm Leo Chen. I'm a technical executive with 25+ years in software engineering, and I still enjoy the part where you build something from nothing and make it real.
I've worked across:
- Embedded systems: device and OS
- Cloud infrastructure: virtualization engine and system architecture
- Blockchain: layer 1/2 and dApp
I care about clean architecture, pragmatic execution, and continuous learning. If something takes effort to understand, it's probably worth documenting. If it takes effort to explain, it's probably worth simplifying.
Outside of work, I spend time cooking, reading, listening to music, traveling, running, and hiking. I like long-distance things, both in engineering and in life.
