About me
I'm a Software Engineer interested in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, and Distributed Systems.
I am currently a 5th-year undergrad Software Engineering student at the University of Waterloo.
I am also working as a full-time Site Reliability Engineer at Electronic Arts.
Besides school and work, I probably spend 50% of my time playing video games and messing around with stuffs. I have wasted around 4000 hrs in DOTA2, written some small mods for Terraria, trying to build my homelab, and more!
I want to share a little bit about myself, as well as posting blogs (tech, game recommendations, and some other stuff) on this site, just as somewhat of a journal, and something that I could reflect back on.
Stuff I Enjoy Doing Recently
Learning System Design
Intrigued in learning how complex large-scale distributed systems are designed and implemented.
Building Infogrep
Infogrep is an open source RAGaaS (Retrieval Augmented Generation as a Service) project.
Games I'm on
Dota2, Diablo 4, Slay the Spire. Trying to start BG3.
Pool and Ping Pong
I enjoy playing pool (8-ball) and ping pong quite a bit, unfortunately not really too good at either of it though.

Lake Louise, Alberta
I went on a road trip from Vancouver to Calgary during Covid in 2020. This was a picture I took in front of the famous Lake Louise.
Toronto, Ontario
Caught a crazy sunset in Toronto. I was interning for RBC back then and lived in downtown Toronto for around 4 months. Can't say I like Toronto that much, but at the time of this picture, I just escaped from Waterloo after being in school for 1 year, so Toronto felt like a breath of fresh air.
Shanghai, China
This is the view from the Shanghai Citrix office at Lu Jia Zui. I was visiting a couple of other Shanghai tech company offices including Microsoft and eBay. All of the offices looks really nice, and lots of good food choices nearby.
White Rock, B.C.
The Whiterock Pier at night. The pier is only a 10-min drive from my house, we sometimes just go and take a little walk near the shore. This was just a bit before Christmas as well so I think there was some sort of event going on. Lots of decorations that night.
Waterloo, Ontario
There is a park near the Waterloo campus, and there's a small zoo within the park. There are usually some alpacas in there, I was rocking the same hair style as my dude here in the picture back then.
