About Jae's Life Blog
Welcome to my personal corner of the internet, where code takes a backseat and life takes the wheel.
Who Am I?
Beyond being a developer, I'm someone who believes that the best algorithms can't capture the beauty of a sunset, and no amount of optimization can replace genuine human connection.
I'm a curious soul who finds joy in:
- Exploring new places and getting wonderfully lost
- Meeting interesting people with stories to tell
- Learning new skills that have nothing to do with computers
- Finding beauty in everyday moments
Why This Blog?
While I spend my days optimizing simulation engines and writing efficient code, life is happening all around us. This blog is my attempt to document the non-binary parts of existence - the messy, beautiful, unpredictable journey we're all on.
What to Expect
Stories and reflections about:
- Travel Adventures: From planned trips to spontaneous detours
- Cultural Experiences: Learning from different perspectives
- Personal Growth: Lessons learned the hard way (and the easy way)
- Random Musings: Thoughts that don't fit in a git commit
- Life Balance: Finding harmony between pixels and people
My Philosophy
- Be present: The best moments happen when we're not looking at screens
- Stay curious: Every person has something to teach us
- Embrace imperfection: Life's bugs are features, not flaws
- Share stories: Our experiences connect us
A Note to Fellow Developers
Yes, there's life after git push. Sometimes the best solutions come when we step away from the keyboard and into the world.

I'd love to hear your stories too. Life is more interesting when shared.
