I'm Bian,

I've been coding for the last 8 years, diving deep into the world of software engineering. Throughout my career, I've had the chance to work with amazing folks in different companies. What I love most is taking a project from just an idea to a fully functioning application - building everything from the user interface to the behind-the-scenes magic.

Since starting out in 2017, I've built over 30+ applications for web and mobile. Each one has been a journey, tackling complex challenges and turning them into something I'm genuinely proud of. My aim is to create applications that don’t just work seamlessly but also feel like a true achievement.

One of my goal in my career is to be part of a company or development team that handles thousands of users. I'm very curious about how the architectural structure works to manage such a volume of users in live action, and I'm eager to contribute to and learn from this high-scale environment.

I'm all about pushing my boundaries, always eager to learn the latest tech or technique to keep my work fresh and innovative. It's this passion for continual growth that drives me to deliver the best solutions possible.
