Materials decisions for wearable products.
I’m a materials engineer at Shokz in Hong Kong, working on wearable products. I look at how material choices affect fit, comfort, surface feel, durability, manufacturing, and cost.
Featured work
Cost, stability, and characterization.
The coating page records a 43% cost reduction. The stability and characterization pages describe my working methods; they are practice notes, not complete project case studies.
Coating Expense Reduction
A completed project that reduced overall coating expenses by 43% after the product requirements and implementation risks were made explicit.
Wearable Product Stability
A practice note on checking stability through body contact, movement, sweat, storage, glasses, pressure, and repeated handling.
Materials Characterization for Decisions
A practice note on naming the decision first, then choosing what to measure, compare, and stop.
Field journal
Journal
Product-use observations, engineering practice notes, and personal writing.
Letters
Original essays and letters.
I keep slower, more personal writing on Substack, in the language and rhythm in which each piece was first written.
Quiet close
A public record of how I work.
This site covers the parts of my work I can discuss publicly. I write about the questions behind a material choice, the trade-offs I make, and what changes when a product leaves the lab.
Email is the most direct way to reach me.
