About

I'm Fuanne.

I build companies and the operating systems that help them grow. My work sits where strategy meets warehouses, teams, software, and everyday execution.

Fuanne Gao

I was born in China and came to Canada when I was four. I grew up in Montreal and Chambly, and I was living independently by 16. The work ethic I saw in my parents, especially my mother, shaped how I approach responsibility and building.

My mother was already in the building materials industry in Montreal. In 2022, I created the Toronto operation for RF Transparent. We expanded across e-commerce, distribution, and building-supply channels, serving B2B and B2C customers in the US and Canada.

The operating work

Growth is a systems problem

Today the company operates with a team of about 50 and more than 40,000 square feet of warehouse space. Scaling it required far more than a sales plan. It meant logistics, hiring, training, inventory, cash flow, customer support, and dozens of small processes that had to work together.

That experience is why I am interested in practical AI and automation. The useful question is not what a tool can demonstrate. It is whether the tool can make a real team faster, clearer, and more reliable inside the work they already do.

How I operate

Systems over heroics

Good operations should produce reliable outcomes without depending on one person saving the day.

Stay close to the work

Strategy gets better when it is grounded in customers, constraints, numbers, and the people doing the job.

Build to learn

A useful first version creates better information than a perfect plan that never reaches the real environment.

Academic interest

Medicine and health systems

I study medicine at McGill alongside running RF Transparent. Medicine offers another view of complex systems, high-stakes decisions, resilience, and the careful use of technology. It complements the operating work rather than replacing it.
