About

Torres del Paine, Patagonia — one of those places that changes how you see things.
I was raised in Taipei and currently based in the Bay Area — somewhere between two worlds, still figuring out what that means.
I work in tech, but this site has nothing to do with that. Timmotional is a space I built for myself — to think more clearly, to track how I'm changing, and to write honestly about the parts of life that don't fit anywhere else.
I care about depth over surface, questions over answers, and the slow kind of growth that's hard to see until you look back. I'm drawn to philosophy, long hikes, good conversations, and the feeling of finally understanding something you've been circling for a while.
This isn't a finished portrait — it's more like an ongoing sketch. The writing here is honest but imperfect. Some of it will age badly. That's fine. The point isn't to be right, it's to be real.
