Why Humanlee
Thinking for ourselves has always been part of what makes us human. Not just having ideas, but sitting with problems, working through challenges, and coming away with a deeper understanding.Â
​
AI has changed what this process looks like faster than anything before it. In only a few years, it has become a tool students use daily. It's benefits are clear, but it harms learning in ways that are less noticeable.Â
​
Humanlee is here to help students use AI with intention without losing what makes them human.

Meet the Team
We are students dedicated to the future of learning.

Jamie Lee
Founder & President
Hey! I'm Jamie, the founder of Humanlee. I grew up in Hong Kong and now attend Choate Rosemary Hall in Connecticut. I started Humanlee because I noticed a growing dependence on AI among myself and my peers. At the same time, I also noticed a lack of guidance for students navigating through it. I wanted to dive deeper into how we can use AI better and protect what makes us human, and guide others to do the same.Â

Jacob Lee
Vice President & Head of Research
Yo! I’m Jacob, Vice President & Head of Research at Humanlee. I was born and raised in Hong Kong and now attend Williston Northampton School. I joined Humanlee because AI has already had a huge impact on my learning and work, and I want to explore how we can preserve the human side of education in an increasingly AI-driven world. Furthermore, I believe it’s imperative for others to understand this distinction as the line becomes more blurry.

Cesar Tupac-Yupanqui
Head of Growth & Content
What's up! I'm Cesar, Head of Growth & Content at Humanlee. I was born and raised in Darien, CT and now attend Choate Rosemary Hall. I joined Humanlee because I kept seeing classmates lean on AI in ways that replaced their own thinking instead of sharpening it, and I wanted to help build something that pushes back on that, a space where students could use AI as a tool without losing their own voice in the process.
