About Me
I'm a college junior from Boston passionate about developing low-level software for the open-source community. I currently study Computer Science at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). You may find me online as PulseBeat02.
I currently work and have worked on some cool stuff, like YouTube, VLC Media Player (traffic cone), and some of my own open-source projects like yt-media-storage that dive deep into multimedia systems.
In my spare time, I practice clarinet in my university orchestra and wind ensemble, and upload videos on my YouTube channel, where I discuss some of my fun projects in further depth.
