01 The team
A small group of engineers and entrepreneurs who built 2RedBeans from a late-night coding sprint into a polished product — and the advisor who helped guide the way. Four co-founders, one advisor, one shared belief that finding the right partner shouldn't be left to chance.
02 Co-Founders
Jeff’s passion for engineering and building things that benefit his community led him to team up with Q at 2Redbeans. He helped design the initial user interface and built the product from its ideation stage to a polished product launch. Prior to 2Redbeans, Jeff co-founded InstantQ, a Y-Combinator funded company. Jeff holds an M.S. degree in Engineering and Management from MIT.
Patrick Amihood co-founded 2RedBeans in 2010, suggesting the name to Q while having dou sha bao for dessert during a late night coding sprint. Patrick advises 2RedBeans and leads ambient sensing at Google, where he founded Soli, a new sensing and interaction paradigm using radar to understand human motion. He graduated from UCSD with a Ph.D. in ECE and Cornell University with a B.A. in Physics.
Paul Lo has a MS in computer science at Stanford University and a BA in the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He was a Technologist and Director of Engineering at Yahoo, consultant for Paypal and Principal at BCG. His passion for food drove him to create the startup FoodStream prior to joining 2RedBeans as a co-founder. He is very excited on applying the AI technology to 2RedBeans.
Q co-founded 2RedBeans after realizing that many Asian Americans are looking for partners with a similar culture background. Her husband and she met on 2RedBeans after 2RedBeans launched in Jan. 2011. Q went to Xi'an Jiaotong University when she was 14. She now has a Ph.D degree in ECE from UCSD.
