Why Software Engineer?

As a child who’s passion revolves around computers and puzzle-solving activities, computer science was basically a perfect match for me. From algorithms to figuring out how to code something specifically, it meshes the two beautifully. I decided to pursue computer science at University of California Santa Cruz where I also discovered my passion for problem-solving and the excitement of accomplishment through repeated trial-and-error.

Fun Facts

While I'm not coding, you can find me going to different restaurants trying new types of food, but also trying to stay fit by going to the gym. I also love puzzle-type solving activities especially like Escape Rooms where you cooperate with teammates in order to solve the mystery of the room. When I'm not outside being social, I like to watch all sorts of Anime and play a variety of types of video games.
