About

My name is Rickson (Ri Xin). I study Software Engineering at the University of Waterloo and I love tinkering and everything hackable.

I enjoy building and tinkering full-stack applications, infrastructures, and dev-utilities. I like to keep up-to-date with the community by going to hackathons, and trying out new tech.

Some of the main technologies I use are Node.js/Express, GraphQL, React, Typescript, Java, and Python. I am also a big Emacs nerd who loves experimenting with workflow setups.
