Hi, My Name is Zhuen Zhong

A Full Stack developer and a Student of Computer Engineering in University of Florida.

About me

I’m a Computer Engineering student who learns best by building things that actually work.

My interest in engineering started from curiosity—how systems behave, how data flows, and why some designs scale while others break. Over time, that curiosity turned into hands-on projects: RBAC systems, message system, and authentication flows in multiple full-stack applications where performance and structure matter.

I enjoy working close to the system level, but I also care deeply about user experience and product logic. Whether it’s designing a clean API, debugging a subtle bug, or refactoring a messy codebase, I value clarity, correctness, and long-term maintainability.

I’m still learning—but I think like an engineer who wants to understand why things work, not just how to make them pass.
