About

I am currently working as a Data Scientist focusing on AI and LLMs. I graduated in Data Science at SJSU, Mathematics & Computer Science at UCLA, and Web Development Bootcamp at Thinkful. It could be said that the world programming has changed my life significantly. I appreciate the flow of logical ideas and the discipline that computer science brought me. I am amazed that there are always improvements we can apply to make our programs better. Technology is constantly developing which definitely makes the life of a programmer more exciting.

I have learned to enjoy and appreciate even the smallest thing in life from eating a delicious cookie, figuring out how to fix bugs in my and others' programs, to bigger things like all the opportunities I had and friends, families around me. Besides coding, I enjoy playing sports such as soccer, tennis, badminton, swimming and outdoor/indoor activities like hiking, listening to music, watching movies, cooking, working out, jogging. Pets often soften me up so much that I just act ridiculously around them.
