Software engineer working on real-time payments at JP Morgan
Previously worked at GIC and DSO National Laboratories
NTU Computer Science (Bachelor’s) and NUS Computer Science (Master’s)
Topics that interest me: python, distributed systems, real-time applications, web scraping, automation, engineering best practices
During my free time, I love to cook, read, run, hike and snowboard. They help to clear my mind and keep me sane.
