About Me

ABOUT ME

I just moved to San Francisco after spending my past summer in Japan researching in a humanoid robotics lab. Now I am working full time as a software engineer at a tech company in San Francisco. I enjoy cycling and playing tennis in my spare time. Also, since moving to the city, I have been enjoying exploring the different sights and sounds, especially the nightlife here. I am always open to meeting new people and learning about their experiences while sharing new ones with them.
