Programmer. Engineer.
Algo Nerd. Dreamer.
Hey, I'm Hai Phong. I'm a University of Waterloo Computer Engineering student and a full-stack dev focused on backend logic, system design, and algorithmic fluency.
Previously, I built systems using the MERN stack and Spring Boot. I also have lots of experience in using tools to automate QA tasks.

ABOUT ME
I'm currently a 1A student at the University of Waterloo for Computer Engineering! I love combining the best of software and hardware in fun projects that tackle a variety of topics, from encouraging healthy lifestyles to Arduino prototyping.
I've been part of multiple hackathons and also was the President of my high school's Computer Engineering club :)
Outside of coding, I enjoy sci-fi films, especially the Star Wars saga. This fall, I’ll get a little closer to the stars by joining Waterloo Rocketry’s Electrical subsystem.
