About Me
I'm a starry-eyed fool from Taiwan with too many interests and a passion for making things. I love entertaining people, am obsessed with puzzles, and groovy music makes me happy. When I see something cool, my first thought is always: how can I do that too?
In my free time, I'm either playing puzzle hunts with my team "Yuki", or working on my personal projects, including videos, drawings, music, and games. Recently, I've been trying out a YouTube channel that shares my projects in a more entertaining format.
