ABOUT ME

🛤️ My Path to Tech

I’m currently in my second year of the Software Engineering Technology program at Conestoga College. Throughout my academic journey, I have had the privilege of working with brilliant peers and professors, building a strong programming foundation along the way.

My interest in programming started in high school in Beijing, China, where I was introduced to Python’s Turtle Graphics. The idea of generating intricate drawings through code rather than traditional hand-drawing fascinated me, sparking my curiosity and leading me into the world of programming.

After high school, I sought new experiences, independence, and an opportunity to study a new language—English. At 17 years old, I came to Canada alone, embarking on my software engineering journey at Conestoga College.

Looking ahead, I aspire to grow into a skilled software engineer, become part of an active band, explore the world of geography, and continuously seek new knowledge and experiences.

✨ My Philosophy

I believe that great software is built through thoughtful design and strong collaboration. Writing clean, well-documented, and scalable code is not just a technical requirement but a responsibility to my team. By following best practices and fostering effective communication, I strive to develop sustainable solutions that contribute to long-term success.

🎸 Beyond the Coding

Outside of software development, I immerse myself in various creative and active pursuits:

• 🎶 Playing guitar in a band.
• 🚴 Road biking and road trips.
• 🏸 Badminton, 🏓 Table Tennis, ⚽ Soccer, 🏒 Hockey, 🎱 Snooker, 🏀 Basketball.
