intro

Hey there!

I'm Orpheus.

I am a Software Engineer in web development based in San Francisco, currently pursuing a master's degree in software management.

about
Thoughtful designs and user-empowering products have always energized me. And as a software engineer, I have helped to bring many of them to life with web technologies.
Beyond software development, I have a deep passion for art, photography, and music. In my spare time, you will often find me tinkering with Polaroid cameras 📸, meandering through art exhibitions 🖼, attending orchestra concerts 🎻, or maybe just at home watering my plants 🌱.
