Welcome 👋 ! I'm Dylan (pronouns: he/him/his) and I am a software engineer currently studying CS & AI in the University of Edinburgh. I am fascinated by web technology and Javascript. I am working to be an expert in building performant, data driven design (3D) webapps. My ultimate goal is to end poverty in the Philippines.

My side project is LogY, a tool for intuitive and efficient memorization of information.

  • Particular interest in NLP.
  • Experience with: TF, ScikitLearn, Pandas
• 3rd wave coffee snob. Experience in: aeropress, pourover, siphon brew,
• Speaks English and a bit of Japanese and Tagalog.

Born and raised in Manila, Philippines. I spent a year in Bangkok, Thailand for my freshman year of highschool, and then finished my last three years in Karuizawa, Japan. I went to Edinburgh, Scotland for Uni, and did a year abroad in Sant Cruz, California.

Travelling is one of my favorite ways to spend my time. I'm a bit of an introvert and I think the best way to improve is through stress tests. Also I love food and nothing beats home cooking.

Sports, specifically team sports is something I always did growing up. I flourish in environments with a strong team spirit, where everyone is working towards a shared goal. I play basketball and baseball but during these times of isolation I picked up running and bouldering.

Movies are another area I pay a lot of time to. I enjoy them because everyone can have an opinion on a movie and what they notice and pick-up on often shows a lot about a person. Some of my favorite movies: Princess Mononoke, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Parasite, and Moon Rise Kingdom.
