Projects


Web Development Module Project

This e-magazine website is dedicated for EV news and reviews. I used grid and flex layouts to make this website. Handlebarsjs is new to me. I tried to implement after I wrote HTML & CSS. I successfully refactored the previous highlight news session on main page. Although I implemented web accessibility, I would add other accessibility features if I have another time.

Game Project

Below is my first game assignment using basic programming techniques. I used the P5.js library to create this small game.

I have been involved in and initiated various local and international developer communities. Here are a few of them.

Hobbies


  • Explore the World (I have visited 6 different countries in my 20s: the US, Japan, Singapore, India, Germany, and Thailand.)
  • Photography (A tiny contribution on Unsplash.)
  • Gaming (I have both Nintendo Switch and PS5. Most of the time, I am just staring at them without turning on since I have to study and work. But I managed to complete a few games. Some of my favorite titles are Astral Chain, Luigi's Mansion 3, Super Mario Odyssey, Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man Series.)
  • Swimming (I embarked on learning how to swim during my adult years. I participated in the 108 swim challenge event at the end of 2023 in Japan. I completed 25 meters 108 times, swimming in two hours.)
  • Roadtrip (Since I enjoy exploring new places, I often drive around cities and the countryside. Fancy a drive? I recommend checking out Fujiyoshida. I've been there quite a few times and have never been bored. The atmosphere changes every time I visit. Please be careful while driving; there are many mountains in the area.)
  • Teaching (Last but not least, I love to share the knowledge I have. While studying, I work as a coding teacher at YouCode and instructor at Code Chrysalis)

Thank you for reading to the end.
