👋

Hello, I'm Khang Hou. I'm a full-stack developer who enjoys building sites & apps. My focus is React (Next.js) and React Native (Expo).

About me

After completing a year of study in Creative Writing at Singapore Polytechnic, I came to the realization that my true passion lay elsewhere. Thus, I made the decision to shift my focus and pursue a course in programming, which ultimately led me to discover a genuine enthusiasm for addressing real-world challenges and making a direct and positive impact on others. real-world problem-solving and positively impacting others through programming. I am particularly drawn to the prospect of contributing to the healthtech industry, driven by a desire to bring about meaningful change for patients and caretakers alike.

My core stack current looks like React, Next.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, React Native. I am also familiar with TypeScript and Prisma. I am always looking to apply the skills I learn into projects that directly impact people.

When I'm not coding, I enjoy swimming 🏊 and consuming content on productivity and philosophy 📚. I also enjoy learning new things and volunteering, usually as a tutor for children from disadvantaed backgrounds or befriending the elderly.
