Hongzhi Zhao / notes from the road

To make each day
count.

Living in interesting times, there's little we can predict, change or even stabilize, instead of getting anxious from the internet and telling myself 'I will do that / travel there once I'm in a better situation', I'll use this place as not only a career site, but more as a record of things I like: blogs, photographs, projects and the quiet texture of ordinary days.

I like driving, and I love hitting random roads, so buckle up, play the song that fits the mood, and let's get on the way :)

About

I like building things that feel useful, interactive, and alive.

I got my bachelor's China and master's in the United States, both in Computer Science, and have 3 years of professional software engineering experience. My work has moved across frontend, backend, and now AI-driven development (who hasn't?).

I currently live in Lawrence Township, New Jersey. When I am not coding, I play games and guitar, visit galleries and museums, or take long city walks.
