đź‘‹ Hi! I’m Kevin, or @iKevinY
in most corners of the Internet.
I’m currently building software at MLSE Digital Labs. I helped design an interactive gaming experience that can simultaneously support thousands of fans inside of Scotiabank Arena, as well as optimized the network requests in a real-time web application, resulting in over an order of magnitude of cost-savings.
Before this, I spearheaded a product rewrite at Freshline, advanced Confidential Computing, and improved Gmail deliverability. I also interned at Riot Games and Axiom Zen while studying computer science at UBC.
Outside of programming, I like to play and watch games with complex, emergent interactions, and games that require precise execution.
I also created zeal.gg, a site for tracking the League of Legends ranked climb.
