Hello, I'm Gloria.
Strategy, Analytics & AI Workflows
I work across strategy research, data analysis, and AI-assisted workflow design — turning ambiguous problems into structured decisions and practical systems.

About
I sit at the intersection of strategy research, data analysis, and information systems — turning ambiguous business questions into structured frameworks, and fragmented inputs into decisions someone can actually act on.
Over the past few years I've worked on global market assessments, evaluation frameworks, and multi-source information synthesis to support management decisions in a fast-moving global organization. In parallel, I've been actively exploring how large language models can change the way we monitor information, write reports, build internal knowledge bases, and prototype products.
I'm not interested in 'AI as a buzzword'. I'm interested in what AI changes about the day-to-day work of research, analysis, and product thinking — and I learn that by building things.
Beyond work, I also keep a personal music journey page — a space for listening notes, taste mapping, and cultural/aesthetic exploration. My Music Journey.
Experience
ByteDance · Strategy Analyst
Jan 2022 – Present · Shanghai
Reframed below as four capability areas rather than a job description.
Global Strategy Research & Market Assessment
- Led and contributed to location and market analyses across multiple countries and cities, building macro- and micro-level research frameworks covering business stage, scale planning, regional value, and talent mobility.
- Supported new-market entry and long-term planning decisions by refining how we evaluate market feasibility, resource fit, and strategic value over time.
Data Analysis & Evaluation Frameworks
- Helped build a core metrics and supply-side strategy for the team, including forecasting models for utilization and capacity based on headcount planning, attendance, and delivery baselines.
- Designed structured evaluation frameworks to translate planning assumptions into decision-ready inputs for resource allocation and mid- to long-term strategy.
Organizational Insight & Multi-Source Information Synthesis
- Integrated behavioral data, internal communications, and qualitative interviews to map collaboration patterns and inform organizational and strategic decisions in key cities.
- Partnered with internal communications to classify employee feedback, surface recurring issues, and feed them back into experience and process improvements.
AI-Assisted Monitoring & Knowledge Management
- Founded and ran a biweekly intelligence brief synthesizing macro trends, market moves, competitor signals, and external research into structured summaries.
- Prototyped AI-assisted monitoring and report generation, built an internal knowledge database, and introduced LLMs into sentiment processing and information workflows.
- Built an internal data query bot to lower the cost of getting to an answer and free up time for actual analysis.
Selected Case Studies
A few representative pieces of work, framed as transferable capabilities rather than internal details. Confidential information, internal system names, and exact metrics are intentionally omitted.
Filter by capability
Context
Supporting management decisions on where and how to grow across global markets, with limited and uneven information across regions.
Approach
Built structured research frameworks combining business context, growth stage, regional value, talent and relocation considerations, and long-term planning relevance. Standardized how cities and markets were compared so that judgments stayed consistent across very different geographies.
Output
A repeatable assessment approach used to compare candidate markets and inform discussions on entry, prioritization, and longer-term positioning.
AI & Product Exploration
Side projects are how I test what AI actually changes about product and research work.
Music Review & Rating Web App
Early-stage demo · in progress
A personal web app where users can rate albums, build ranked lists and tier lists, and — eventually — generate AI-assisted music taste profiles.
- Front-end prototyping with Lovable; database and auth on Supabase.
- AI agents used for data enrichment and workflow design around album metadata and recommendations.
- Product thinking around rating systems, user-generated lists, taste profiles, and cultural recommendation interfaces.
- End-to-end exercise: vague product idea → user flows → schema → working demo.
