Hello, I'm Ky. I'm a self-taught developer with 2 years of experience. I enjoy building sites & apps. My focus is the MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node) tech stack. I built this website using Next.js
About Me
After graduating from UCLA with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, I decided to pursue my passion for programming. I taught myself modern web development and frontend design.My favorite part of programming is the problem-solving aspect. I love the feeling of finally figuring out a solution to a problem. I am always looking to learn new technologies.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy playing video games, watching movies, and playing with my dog. I also enjoy learning new things. I am currently learning about history and philosophy. I'm also learning how to play the guitar.
