About Me

I began coding for Perfect Storm, a modding project of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 that surpassed 5 million international views on YouTube. Since I started college at UCI in Fall 2021, I've expanded my computer science expertise, graduating in June 2025 with a Bachelor's in Software Engineering. Currently, I'm interning at Pixel Canvas and MIXR Studios, focusing on innovative AR/XR experiences. I'm also a Taekwondo National Champion (April 2024) and am now seeking full-time opportunities in software engineering, specializing in cloud deployment/management and AI/ML.
