About Me

Google Hackathon Winner

Hi, I'm Kenny! I'm a second-year MSci Computer Science student at Royal Holloway, University of London. I specialize in full-stack with Next, TypeScript, and Firebase, creating innovative solutions with a focus on real-world impact. I enjoy leading projects, working in teams, and continuously improving my technical skills.

I thrive on building user-focused web apps that solve real-world problems, from creating dynamic software to optimizing performance & accessibility. My experience includes leading website migrations, end-to-end development, and IT system support, all while driving growth & innovation.

Outside academics, I'm passionate about learning Japanese, playing instruments, and exploring tech trends. Whether stargazing, attending events like WWDC, or building open-source tools, I blend creativity & technology to make a meaningful impact.
