The Story

I use product instinct, content momentum, and founder-side evidence to test whether an idea can truly grow.

I care less about cold technical demos and more about how AI enters real life, earns trust, and becomes something people understand and want to use. My work moves across AI products, founder storytelling, content growth, and early commercial validation.

Career Focus

Open to full-time and remote roles in AI growth.

My current priority is finding the right team where I can turn founder-side product and growth experience into repeatable company outcomes.

Open to full-time / remote opportunities

Focused on AI Global Growth, Product Marketing, Creator Partnerships, and 0-to-1 GTM roles where product sense, content distribution, and cross-border execution matter.

Employment-first positioning

ZenStellar is presented here as founder-side proof of product, growth, and execution. For the right full-time role, my focus is on the company mission and measurable team outcomes.

Proof of Momentum

Content is not decoration. It is a product validation engine.

In ZenStellar's early growth, personal brand, product narrative, and cross-platform conversion were tested as one integrated system: define the problem, take action in public, then measure real market response.

AI Product Validation

Problem

Early AI products often look impressive in demos, but users still need a clear reason to trust, understand, and return to them.

Action

I translate product features into user-facing scenarios, test positioning through content, and connect early feedback back into product decisions.

Impact

This creates a tighter loop between product, narrative, and market response before the team spends too much on scale.

Founder-Led Growth

Problem

For AI startups, attention alone is not enough. The audience has to understand the founder, the product promise, and the evidence behind it.

Action

I built a founder-led X account from zero, developed repeatable content angles, and used public feedback to refine product and brand direction.

Impact

The account reached 10k followers in 3 months, with one organic post reaching 5M+ views without paid promotion.

Global GTM Bridge

Problem

Consumer AI and hardware products often struggle to explain themselves across markets, platforms, and cultural contexts.

Action

I connect China-based product execution with overseas storytelling, KOL resources, academic networks, and crowdfunding-style validation.

Impact

The result is a more credible path from 0-to-1 product launch to global audience trust and early commercial traction.

Commercial Case Notes

How the numbers connect to business outcomes.

The numbers matter because they sit inside a full loop: product hypothesis, audience strategy, execution, feedback, and commercial signal.

X Account Growth

Case Study

Advisory Strengths

The network and operating muscles I bring into a team.

Beyond individual execution, I bring a practical map of product positioning, content expression, platform growth, and overseas creator resources that can support in-house AI growth work.

0-to-1 Global Go-to-Market

For AI hardware, AI applications, and consumer technology products: overseas positioning, user narrative, first validation path, and content-to-conversion loop.

Product Growth Consulting

Content matrix, conversion path, and founder-brand expression across X, TikTok, LinkedIn, Xiaohongshu, WeChat Channels, and Douyin.

KOL Campaigns

Access to AI MCN and AI KOL resources across overseas creators, AI-focused influencers, Chinese-language tech circles, and platform advertising opportunities.

KOL Placement & Creator Resources

My own X growth was fully founder-led: content, followers, and reach were built organically without paid creator placements. Alongside that, I have built a strong overseas creator network, close ties to X-native MCN operators, and experience with platform ad collaborations.

AI Creator Circle on X

The account has built mutual connections with leading AI creators, including large AI-focused accounts such as “Digital Life Khazik.” My early product also received promotional support from this network.

Academic & AI Industry Resources

Through my work at OxValue AI, I worked closely with Oxford professor Xiaolan Fu. As a CBAIA member, I also maintain stable access to academic, industry, and founder resources in both China and the UK.

Projects

Selected Projects

A few products, content systems, and founder experiments currently being validated in public.

Ending
