Bio
Hey, I'm Wei. I work as a product development engineer now where I design consumer products, figure out how to make 50,000+ units, and bring them to market so you can buy them at Walmart. Most recently before this role, I worked at two startups, traveled to over a dozen countries, and graduated from MIT in 2019. At school, I studied Mechanical Engineering, Design, and Entrepreneurship. I love spending time at this intersection. I was originally born in China and immigrated to US when I was 10. In my free time, I enjoy mentoring young people, cooking, exercising, reading, and most recently, driving. If you have any questions about product development, startups, college, career... feel free to reach out.Project ideas

Together, we will identify your customer, brainstorm solutions, map channels, design a business model, build a MVP, and figure out how to scale your business. By the end, you should feel comfortable to pursue any future ventures.
Design a product from concept to physical prototype in 10 days
Do you also get excited when you hold a physical product in your hand? Same here. This is what motivated me to study Mechanical Engineering at MIT and work as a product development engineer now. I love product development and want to help you design your own product. In 10 days, we can empathize with the end user, define the problem, ideate solutions, build prototypes, test, and iterate on the design process depending on our learnings. By the end, you will understand what it takes to design a physical product.
