About Me

Hey!

Hi! 👋 I’m Chan Myae Aung, a full-stacked developer based in Bangkok, Thailand. I create beautiful, user-friendly websites using modern tools like Tailwind CSS, Javascript, Next.js, React.js, Golang, MySQL, and PostgreSQL.

Born in 1999 in Hpa-an, Myanmar, and shaped by my experience working with diverse teams in Singapore, I bring a unique perspective to every project I build.

When I’m not coding, I enjoy writing about whatever inspires me from tech to everyday ideas. 😄

Hey!

Education

I earned my Bachelor’s in Information Technology from James Cook University, Singapore 🎓. During my studies, I gained hands-on experience in programming, web development, project management (Scrum and Sprints), networking, data analysis and even explored machine learning. It was an invaluable experience that gave me a strong foundation to thrive in the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of IT. 🤓

Education

Reading

I’ve always been an avid reader, especially when it comes to learning new tech. I’d rather dive into documentation than watch endless tutorials, it’s the fastest way for me to absorb and apply new knowledge. 🤓

Recently, my uncle recommended Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman, a fascinating dive into how our minds work through System 1 (fast, intuitive thinking) and System 2 (slow, deliberate thinking). I’m still making my way through it, but it’s been a real eye-opener. 🧠💥

Reading

Music

I’m a total music enthusiast 🎶 with playlists that span everything from Burmese pop and classical to game and TV soundtracks. If it sounds good, I’m listening!

Some of my current favorites include "When The Morning Light Shines In" from Far Cry 5, "Ashes" by Claire Guerreso from Lucifer, "Priscilla Song" from The Witcher 3, Lumière From Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 ,the Promised Consort theme from Elden Ring, and the Elden Ring final battle theme. These tracks inspire me, boost my focus, and spark my imagination.

Music is my go-to stress reliever, especially during Pomodoro breaks, 25 minutes of deep work followed by 10 minutes of pure musical bliss. It’s more than entertainment; it’s a core part of who I am. 🎵
