After work

I like to build things, check out some of my recent vibe coding projects

Artist AI Concept

I experimented with connecting the Spotify API and OpenAI API to build a simple artist AI tool. It was a hands-on way to learn how to wire up frontend and backend APIs into a seamless experience.

Virtual Piano

I built a virtual piano app in React just for fun. This is one of my first few attempts to “Vibe Coding”.

No I don’t just sit in front of a computer all day, I “build” other things too 😅....

Gunpla Model Kits

In my free time, I practice a different kind of craftsmanship—building 1/144 Gundam model kits. Each one takes about a week of dedication and demands a lot of patience and precision. It’s a creative outlet that lives outside of screen-based UI, reminding me of the value of hands-on focus and detail.
