About me

Extensive experience in self-driven software engineering projects under cross geographical & cultural team environments.
Strives towards being a competent engineer and lifelong learner.

I grew up as a TCK in Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Had a breakdown in 2019 during my research master's studies at HKUST. Looking back, it was a result of long-repressed trauma from my dad's layoff during my schooling days, academic and financial pressure, military service issue, social unrest in Hong Kong, and my identity crisis all coming together.

As I am finally getting back on my feet, I'm starting to think that this post-traumatic growth experience might have been more of a blessing, and less of a curse. Now, I'm again moving forward with my life to face another turbulent economic time ahead, but I'll be more resilient than ever before.
