About Me

I'm in the midst of getting my Bachelor's from Singapore Management University in Accountancy & Computer Science

I am deeply passionate and self-driven. I taught myself programming from scratch and full stack web development with The Odin Project. It is one of my goals in life to be able to use my love for computers and technology to make a real difference to society through software.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me making filter/espresso coffee, hanging with friends, enjoying obscure films, tinkering with keyboards, reading up about psychology/mental health stuff, or dancing at my school's hip-hop dance club.
