During my time at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), I combined coursework, projects, and extracurricular activities to build a strong foundation across software engineering, data science, and interdisciplinary teamwork.
Projects
Simulating the Spread of Opinions in Social Networks
For my final year project, I explored how opinions spread across social networks using mathematical modeling and simulations. Leveraging both the DeGroot and Bounded Confidence models, I analyzed how network structure, individual influence, and self-appraisal mechanisms affect opinion formation and consensus.

OpenRice Scraper and Data Analyzer
As a side project, I built a data analysis pipeline for Hong Kong’s OpenRice (similar to Yelp) to study restaurant trends, pricing, and satisfaction levels. Full write-up here.
Beyond Academics
- HKIE Delegation (Hong Kong Institution of Engineers) — Represented CUHK and engaged with industry professionals through seminars and site visits.
- Human Library — Leader in CUHK’s Human Library program, an initiative focused on breaking down stereotypes and fostering meaningful conversations through personal storytelling.
Graduated with Honors from CUHK, with strong technical, analytical, and collaborative skills that I continue to apply in professional software development today.
