Young Joon Kim

Hi! I studied ITI, CS, and Japanese at Rutgers. Right now I'm studying backend development with Java Spring and JPA. I've studied in 🇺🇸, 🇰🇷, and 🇯🇵 growing up and comfortable working with all three languages.

I like spending time riding bikes 🚲, learning 3d modelling 🫖, taking pictures 📷, looking up furniture and interior designs 🪑, and cooking 🫕 when I'm free!
