Stay simple. Stay naive.

Hi! I recently graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a Master’s degree in Computer and Information Science (MSE/CIS). I’m currently seeking full-time entry-level Software Development Engineer roles. Before UPenn, I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2019.

My professional experience focuses on full-stack development using Node.js, with React for the frontend and various AWS services for the backend. Beyond TypeScript, I also enjoy working with C/C++ for performance-critical applications, such as large-scale distributed Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search systems used in vector databases.

I love working on projects for both coursework and personal enjoyment. Scroll down to see some of my highlighted projects!

In my free time, I am a PC gamer who enjoys the Souls series and an anime enthusiast. Feel free to follow me on GitHub.
