I love learning about Ai development and algorithms. I read research papers and watch new YouTube videos discussing emerging mathematical and computer related technologies.

I love working with interesting people, but also having remote work is the most important for me because it allows me to use my own self-designed professional work setup.

During programming competitions during high school I was faced with many questions that asked topics and logical situations that I have never seen before. I loved the pressure and the speed of the development. It was so thrilling and fun. I ended up taking 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in many categories across 3 years and 3 attempts.

To this day, I still love coding tests.

Outside of private company work that I can't show the code for, I have some personal projects that I like to do: This project is a fun one! I worked with my girlfriend, who is a UX designer. I'm proud of this code because I love making things look pixel perfect, and elegant in simplicity for the user! I also am proud of myself because I came up with some unique solutions to handling the data to streamline the development process as well--making revisions and adding features into the future a lot easier. It's still got a bit more work to be finished, but it's 90% done.

I worked in Flutter to make a cross-platform app that felt extremely simple to use. As well as an equal, separate web client written in SvelteKit for handling sharing/linking data so users can quickly share their content with anyone on the web--even if they don't have the app downloaded. Using Firebase for Authentication, Firestore for data, and Cloud Storage for media uploads.

The idea was to make an app that felt as light as a feather to use, but had a lot of sturdy features and customization. As well as integrates a social element that is non-competitive to mainstream social apps, but can work as as a nice addition to peoples' daily lives. We wanted to provide a simple place for users to share their daily life, their accomplishments, or work together and put plans in motion with their friends using our teams feature!

I'm in the process of updating this project to Flutter 3.0, and then releasing to the Apple and Android app stores, and Windows, Linux, MacOS clients. Flutter allows a single codebase to work as the framework for all of these platforms, and you can target single platforms with just a bit of extra code.

Both of these questions can be answered at once. I both love and I fear for the development of Ai. I think it's really impressive, the things that can be accomplished. However it can easily become a thing that can fall outside of our grasps if we don't successfully approach the issue with preparation. I want to make an influence towards that development, because I think it needs the proper approach to be a benefit, and not a danger, to our society.

South Korean working experience is very unique from American working expectations, and I feel it was so truly beneficial for everyone to enjoy and work hard peacefully. It was great for my and others' mental health's and also our productivity was the best team I've ever been apart of.

I've been on a lot of different teams, from small to big, and I have learned that a lot of approaches depend on the situation and who you're working with. Just approach your friends and coworkers with a positive respect, and understanding of their situation as well. Productivity is important, but not as important as maintaining a positive work environment.
