About Me

About Me Image
“Do what you can with all you have, wherever you are.” – Theodore Roosevelt

Welcome to my website! I'm Justin Chhay, a 4A Computer Engineering student at Waterloo. I created this website to showcase my skills and interests, all in a byte-sized format. I am interested in fingerstyle guitar, anime, photography, camping, and everything to do with the outdoors. Developing software has also been another outlet for my creativity, showing cool games to friends and seeing people use things I've built! I have experience in full stack development and QA, with an interest in AI/ML and game development.

I customized a template by HTML5Up, with hopes of later on creating my own website from scratch (using React). By the way since you're here, why not check out what I've been working on?

Projects

They say the best (and most fun) way to learn languages and technologies is through side projects. So here are some of mine!

SpotiGuessr

A ReactJS + Tailwind web app that tests the player on their personal Spotify playlist knowledge via short audio snippets in a time-based game.

Rock Paper Scissors

A simple website recreating the classic game "Rock, Paper, Scissors" which plays up to 5 rounds versus a computer. I designed and developed the front-end with HTML and CSS. As for the game logic and alert system, I used JavaScript.

Guitar Covers

Here are some songs that I have been practicing on my acoustic guitar! The art of fingerstyle guitar incorporates both the bass and lead notes behind a song, heavily utilizing unique acoustic techniques such as thumb slaps, wrist bumps, harmonics. These help simulate other instruments (drums, bass).
