Biography

Hello, my name is Huy!

B.S. in Computer Science 2023 @ University of Utah.

I am originally from Vietnam and will be the first in my family to achieve a college degree in my family! Building and shaping the Chef’d application has been quite a fun journey. Valuable resources and concepts were learned along the way. It was a pleasure working with the team to come up with a project that will be useful for many if not for everyone. Being able to quickly adapt and learn new software and programming languages, I was able to fully contribute to the team and help others when needed.

My primary areas of interest include software web design, full-stack development, game design, data science, and AI. My core responsibilities for Chef’d were user interface and design, displaying recipe data, digital shopping list, review system, digital kitchen pantry, and in-store shopping mode. Some other interests include fintech and mobile app development. I plan to dedicate some time to building a web application which will be a finance tracker for assets and monthly spending and budgeting. My external interests involve many sports like volleyball, tennis, golf, etc. I also enjoy video games and cooking. Excited for what the future holds!
