Hi, I'm Howard.

My name is Howard Kim, but I also go by: Ho Kim / 김호 / 金瑚.
I am a 1.5th generation Korean-American currently located in San Francisco Bay Area, California.

I am a graduate of University of California, San Diego with a Bachelor of Science degree in Cognitive Science with Specialization to Machine Learning and Neural Computation. I have also studied Computer Science and Human-Computer Interaction in hopes of covering everything from UI/UX design lifecycles & frontend development to backend engineering & system design.

With a passion for automation, data, and design - both physical and digital - I am focused on engineering and building products that are high in efficiency, scalability, and robustness.
