This is (kind of) a technical blog.

  • I’m in Hanoi, Vietnam, and a fresh Computer Science graduate.

  • I’m currently @ Viettel Digital Talent 2024 as a Cloud resident.

  • My topics are in cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and reliability - the design process, what metrics are involved; how every component looks so simple yet is crucial to the system’s normal functioning; quantifying uncertainty and preparing for failures. It’s one gigantic puzzle, and I love every part of it.

  • I love working in fast-moving environments, where I can have a hand in every part of the process: design, implement, and deliver a product end-to-end.

  • Most of my day is spent in VSCode.

  • My opinion: I prefer light mode. Straight to the guillotine, I guess.

Outside of work,

  • I write about pop culture, books I’ve read, and things I’ve seen and experienced. I repost some of my writings on Goodreads under the category Books. I try to polish all my posts, but if it’s too long ago I’ll just throw a tag on it and call it a day.

  • Also, if you’re waiting for Haunted Chocolatier, give me a sign. I can’t be the only one, right?
