I am a Software Engineer/Data Analyst seeking different types of creativity in Engineering, Statistics and Business. I have enjoyed being able to apply what I learned in classes to my application and sharing my applications to benefit the public. In my spare time, I usually do side project to learn new techniques and make my life easier. "Backtest System" is one of the side projects I developed in my sophomore year of college. I am currently working on an iOS app with Human Posture Synthesis technique inspired by Caroline Chan's "Everybody Dance Now". In addition, I am planning to pursue a MS program in Computer Science in the near future. My primary research objective and interest are in the area of software engineering, computer vision and human-computer interaction (HCI).
Worked remotely and collaborated with four mentors via Github. My task was to refactor existing frameworks and develop new features while kept backward compatible. I discussed with the mentors to prioritize the tasks and made a complete timeline. We developed using Git-flow Workflow. I ran into many merge conflicts at the beginning and was worried about if I broke any functionality. However, as the project went, I could efficiently fix the conflicts and commit high-quality code. Also, I learned how to write an understandable commit message. As a result, I successfully integrated new features with the old ones so users could easily apply new functionalities to their program.

This app is the project from cs520 class at UMass Amherst in Fall, 2019. The goal is to develop a live map web/mobile app that provides users the convenience to find itinerary with the least elevation. It can benefit people especially bikers and disabilities so they can save their effort from climbing.

In 2012, during my sophomore year of college, I found it was difficult to test and track the performance of my trading strategy. I decided to build a platform that people can not only test their strategies but obtain a detailed analysis report based on what I had learned in class. Then I used R to do statistical analysis behind the scene and JavaScript to build a responsive website. It took me a month to learn JavaScript and a month to build a functional website. I implemented the Walk Forward Analysis(WFA) and Cross-Validation to test the stability of the strategy. In the end, I deployed the website on the Shiny server and shared it on PTT, the largest forum in Taiwan, and received positive responses.
