About

Who Am I?

Hi I'm Bitian, a software engineer at Hack for LA, contributing to open-source projects that build digital products, programs and services with community partners and local government to address issues in our LA region.

I love to learn and teach, especially when it comes to my passion, web development.

I am an artist, with a focus on sculpture.

I have two foster cats that inspired me to develop a Catlog app for rescue agencies.

I enjoy cooking, hiking, hosting boardgame nights, and playing music with friends and family.
