This is the cyber existence of Muyang Ye (叶沐阳), I graduated from the University of Southern California (USC) with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and I am currently working as a Software Engineer at Microsoft Azure Networking🌐. During my undergrad, I am extremely fortunate to work with Ph.D. mentor Rajrup Ghosh, professor Ramesh Govindan on volumetric video streaming and rendering and with professor David Kempe on interactive maxflow algorithms visualization.

I originally decided to study Computer Science because I wanted to modify/make games (some people think programmers should not expose this classical lame reason, I don’t think so because programming games/game hacks is usually on the harder side of all kinds of dev). However, after several years of programming, I’ve shifted my focus to the practicality of Computer Science to solve problems in daily lives. For example, I have built a fast travel planner/Traveling Salesman solver (although I don’t really have enough money to justify the demand of planning the shortest travel route for 20+ places yet😆) and a Netease playlist to Spotify migrater. In addition to building tools myself, I enjoy building tools that have a much broader influence with other open source enthusiasts. To this end, I contributed to Apache Streampipes and was nominated as a committer. I greatly appreciate all the awesome open-source projects I’ve used and the nice, friendly open-source community. Coming from competitive programming background in high school, I also love to explore theoretical aspects of Computer Science such as algorithms.

In my leisure time, I enjoy video games, traveling, geocaching, cooking (maybe I’ll open a page in the future), badminton, skateboarding, archery, billiard, stand-up comedies (George Carlin is my favorite👨‍🦳), and all kinds of card games. In addition, living in SoCal, I love to explore the most authentic Chinese restaurants in North America around San Gabriel Valley - Rowland Heights.
