Nice to meet you! 👋

I'm Hanson

Get to know me!

I'm recently graduated from UC Davis with a Computer Engineering degree. I love using software to build things that help out the community or improve the way people work.

Outside of coding, I enjoy weightlifting, running outdoors, cooking new recipes, and playing with my cat, Link.

I am currently a SDE at Amazon where I work on backend services for sellers.
