About
Hi guys! I’m Vivian Dai, a computer science student at the University of Waterloo. I enjoy making fun little projects that are either actually make life easier or overcomplicate things in a funny way. This could be a mobile app that uses an unconventional time system or a multi-user drawing tool. You can learn more about things I’ve done in the projects section of this website. Topics that interest me in the field of computers include cybersecurity, Android app development, and machine learning so I’d like to learn more about these fields.
Computer science aside, I’m interested in music, photography (enjoy these random photos I took and put here to take up space), theatre, and reading science fiction. Some works I’ve enjoyed include Ted Chiang’s short stories, All Tomorrows, and The Last Question (no particular order, just random ones that come to mind at the moment).
In my free time, you might find me going on spontaneous bike rides or walks, not sleeping because of a hackathon, CTF, or because I got carried away doing some personal project, or thinking about ideas and concepts that I’ve come across (sci fi is a good inspiration).
