About me

Hey there, I'm Michelle Chen!

Description of image

I am a full-stack developer with a passion for crafting innovative solutions. Graduating from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, I've honed my coding and problem-solving skills, ready to tackle any challenge that comes my way.

My journey into technology began with a desire to explore and make a positive impact in human life. I aimed to develop coding projects that can help others make their lives easier.

Beyond tech, I find joy in simple pleasures. Whether it's losing myself in music 🎧, hitting the ski slopes ⛷️, or busting out some K-pop dance moves 💃, I'm always up for new adventures.
