Hello! I'm Tien-Lan Sun, an AI innovator and advocate for universally accessible quality education and healthcare. As a Masason Foundation Member, I’m building on my experience with TeleAEye, an AI eye disease diagnostic system, to EduBeyond, an AI startup transforming global education.
At EduBeyond, I’m leading work to democratize education by personalizing learning experiences for students worldwide and automating non-instructional tasks, liberating teachers to focus on the irreplaceable human elements of teaching. Additionally, by leveraging technology to democratize access, I hope to give every learner the opportunity to engage in meaningful, high-quality education regardless of their location or socio-economic status.
I’m excited to brainstorm and collaborate with other members to deploy their innovations on the EduBeyond platform to students across the globe.
