About Me

I'm currently a full-stack software engineer, startup founder, and forth-year student at the University of Washington majoring in Astronomy. My main specialty is web development, specifically React, Next.js, and the Node.js ecosystem. Over the past few years, I gradually transitioned from building web apps as side projects to building applications for real-world use cases and finally to building startups. I also dabble in some Python, doing some web scraping and data analysis here and there.

I'm currently looking for full-time software engineering opportunities during summer and fall 2024, and part-time SDE positions starting right now. If you're interested in working with me, feel free to reach out!
