About me

Things I like:

• Traveling
• Rock climbing
• Hiking
• One Piece
• Making tools that make life easier—without paying for a subscription to some pre-existing service that slowly gets worse over time
• Bubble tea

👋 Hey, I'm Quang! I recently earned a B.S. in Computer Science from Western Governors University. This was actually my second degree—I pursued it to learn how to build cool things.

My journey into software engineering began at my previous job. Some of the tasks were insanely repetitive, so I started teaching myself automation. That led to my first internal tool: an Excel VBA macro that turned a multi-minute task into a simple two-button click. Seeing something I made save so much time and effort on a daily basis gave me the motivation to pursue the field in earnest.

Basically, I wanted to work less--I mean, more efficiently. Work smarter, not harder!
