About

Hi! I'm Johnathan and I'm a Chinese American based in San Francisco. I recently graduated from UC Berkeley with my B.A. in Computer Science in May 2020.

I love discussing new technology products/trends, mental wellness, and building a meaningful career/lifestyle. Some causes I'm passionate about include improving equity in education, food security, sustainability, and empowering people to do what they love. My hope is that I'm able to align my career with the causes I care about in the near future. In my free time, I enjoy writing in my journal, taking photos, watching anime, and wracking my brain in different strategy & board games.

To learn more about me, you can also check out some of my favorite essays from online or what products I'm currently using! I've also been trying to read more lately and have been updating my bookshelf.

Feel free to reach out if you want to talk about breaking into tech, collaborating on a project, or just anything else in general — always happy to chat!

Me, 2019
