Empathetic products
Start with the person, their context, and the friction that genuinely deserves solving.
ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Haixin.
I'm an aspiring product manager and human-centered AI advocate, building technology around genuine human needs.

HOW I STARTED
My path started with people, not a title.
My path into product management didn't begin with a PM title. It began with curiosity about people: how we think, what frustrates us, and why some technology helps us flourish while other technology makes life feel harder.
As AI became more powerful, I became interested not only in what it could do, but in who could benefit from it—and who might be excluded. That curiosity led me to questions about prompt privilege, the AI divide, accessibility, and the responsibility of the people building AI products.
I found product management at the intersection of those questions. It gives me a practical way to turn beliefs into products: research human problems, decide what is worth solving, build something useful, test it with real people, and keep learning.
WHAT I BELIEVE
AI should magnify human potential.
I'm optimistic about AI, but intentionally so. I believe it can automate the tedious, widen access, and magnify human potential—when products are designed with empathy and grounded in how people actually live.
Accessible AI
AI literacy should widen opportunity rather than deepen prompt privilege and the AI divide.
Human flourishing
Use automation to return time, agency, creativity, and meaningful judgment to people.
RIGHT NOW
I'm building, testing, and learning in public.
I'm still early in this journey. I'm learning in public, shipping real work, and documenting the thinking behind it. This portfolio is not just a collection of finished products; it's a record of the product manager I'm becoming.
