History

Hobbies

Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, camping, and fishing—activities that immerse me in nature and inspire my passion for landscape photography. Capturing the beauty of these environments has honed my attention to detail and creative eye. I also dedicate time to self-studying Korean, which deepens my appreciation for cultural nuances and strengthens my discipline in learning complex systems.

When I’m not outdoors, I channel my curiosity into coding side projects using HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, often integrating APIs to solve practical problems or experiment with new functionalities. Additionally, I love reading across diverse genres, from sci-fi to biographies, as it fuels my ability to approach challenges with fresh perspectives and innovative solutions.
