about
design × engineering
i'm a year 3 computer science student at nus with deep interests in photography and tech — i love working at the intersection of design and engineering. i delight in reducing friction: most of what i build starts as a small tool to make my own life smoother. off-screen, you'll find me bouldering, behind a camera, or attempting latte art (though i'll always take a good matcha).
