Dan Nguyen

Software & AI Engineer

I build intelligent, AI-driven applications that solve real-world problems.

This town is a love letter to the Pokémon games. I started on a Nintendo Game Boy, then moved on to the DS and the 3DS. Without them, I would never have gotten into software or CS in the first place.
