Preferred 250-Word Bio
Michael Yap is a Vancouver-based founder, AI systems builder, and growth operator focused on turning strong ideas into clearer products, positioning, and execution. He is the founder of Univenture Studio, a venture studio working across AI systems, workflows, positioning, growth, and product design.
Michael's background spans large-scale e-commerce growth, paid media, publishing systems, audience building, and founder-level product strategy. Over time, that experience evolved into a broader point of view: helping founders and teams find the clearest next move before they overbuild. That can mean a smarter AI workflow, clearer positioning, a cleaner conversion path, or a more coherent public story.
He is especially interested in AI when it improves judgment, reduces friction, and helps people create or operate with more freedom rather than replacing the human reason for building in the first place. Michael's work is also shaped by martial arts, meditation, psychology, philosophy, and storytelling, which influence how he thinks about discipline, behavior change, and brand identity. The result is a business perspective that combines systems thinking with taste, proof, and a strong preference for grounded technology that supports people and good judgment.

If This Turns Into A Hiring Conversation
Do not make people guess which file to open. Start with Hiring Michael Yap. If the role is broad across product, AI systems, growth, or cross-functional scope, use the General Product, AI, and Growth Resume as the formal resume. If someone needs one forwardable recruiter file, use the Recruiter Case File Brief. If leadership scope needs a faster summary, add the Executive Leadership Profile. Add the Proof Brief once the fit looks real. Only switch to the niche resume versions when the role clearly centers consumer wellness or publishing and creator platforms.
