Howdy, I'm Albert Chung!

About me🍪

Howdy, I'm Albert! I was born and raised at the tip of Texas in a little city called Harlingen. My first run-in with coding was during high school, and I picked it back up during my junior year in college. I recently graduated from General Assembly's Software Engineering Immersive (SEI) program, where I really took a deep dive into full-stack web development and computer science theory.

In just the span of three months, my journey as a developer has come a long way. I’ve learned and implemented so many new technologies while maintaining industry best practices. My goal now is to hear my code described as two words: robust and elegant.

Something that might surprise you about me is how much I love cookies. To the untrained eye, it may seem as simple as following a recipe, but there's so much more to it: what sugar(s) you use, the ratio between them, how many eggs, how many egg whites, how many egg yolks, the list goes on and on. After a lot of searching, I finally found a recipe that made me never look back. Give it a shot. I promise you won't regret it.
