About
Hi, I'm Felix!
I'm an upcoming senior at the University of Michigan pursuing a BSE in Computer Science with a 4.0 GPA. I'm passionate about building scalable, production-ready systems and continuously refining my skills across the full stack.
Through internships and independent projects, I've worked extensively with modern technologies including Next.js, Spring Boot, SQL and NoSQL databases, Docker, and AWS. During my internship at Shenzhen Ningyuan Technology Co., I improved the team's API documentation workflow by transitioning from a static frontend approach to a dynamic backend-driven system using Spring Boot and MySQL, significantly increasing maintainability and development efficiency.
Outside of internships, I focus on building end-to-end products. I developed TeamUp, a full-stack hackathon matchmaking platform using Next.js and MongoDB, and KotobaQuest, a Japanese vocabulary learning tool adopted by students at my high school. I am currently building Aniworks, a full-stack anime and manga platform that began as a tracking application and is evolving into a broader ecosystem featuring social functionality, an OTT streaming component, and e-commerce integration. I handle the full lifecycle—from architecture and development to cloud deployment and infrastructure configuration.
I'm especially interested in opportunities where I can work on challenging engineering problems, contribute to scalable systems, and collaborate with teams that value technical excellence. Whether building robust backend services, crafting intuitive user experiences, or improving system infrastructure, I'm motivated by solving meaningful problems and continuously learning.
