Hi there 👋

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 also studied big data algorithms briefly with professor David Woodruff during high school.

I originally decided to study Computer Science because I wanted to modify/make games (yeah, a classical lame reason lol). 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 (current: Legend of Zelda TOTK), traveling, mountaineering, cooking (maybe I’ll create a page in the future), badminton, skateboarding, archery, billiard, normal/stand-up comedies (favorite: George Carlin👨‍🦳), and all kinds of card games. In addition, living in Los Angeles, I love to explore the most authentic Asian restaurants in USA around San Gabriel Valley - Rowland Heights. (Only after leaving LA did I learn how superior LA’s Asian food is compared to other places, which kinda pushed my cooking skills to the next level)
