About Me

Hey everyone, my name is Tim. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine in Computer Science, specializing in Systems and Software. I'm passionate about turning ideas into functional and elegant applications and understanding how technology works at its core. I'm actively seeking new-grad positions.

Outside of the coding space, you'll find me indulging in the NBA, J-RPGs, J-Pop, and most recently, visual novels.
