about me

Hi. I'm Benny.

In 2023, I parted ways with my comfy silicon valley tech startup job, moved to Bali, and gambled my career to self-teach coding (in 100 days). It was one of the scariest things I've ever done.

Now, I mostly still live in Bali, cover costs by working as a freelance software developer, and experiment with various project ideas with the rest of my time.

This site is how I'm sharing bits of my life 🙂

Previously, I was the 2nd Bizops hire at a Series A insurtech startup. I have also founded a meal delivery startup, worked as Employee #1 at a construction-tech startup, and was a program manager at a semiconductor manufacturing company.

How I'm spending my time right now

• ‍🧑‍💻 freelancing software engineering
• 💪 building muscle (s/o Julian Shapiro)
• 💡 testing business ideas
• 📚 reading and watching: things I consume
• 🌴 enjoying Bali
