arrived as a second son to a set of proud parents. If this sounds
like Moby Dick to you, then let me assure you, I have no
intention of finding a ship to hunt a whale. But I digress.
Brought up in Taiwan until the tender age of seven, my whole
family migrated south to the tropical islands of the Philippines.
There we made our home, and lived some fifteen years. Here's
a picture of Mom and me when I was around
six years old.

Welcome to my home page. To segregate myself from your everyday geek, I'd like to think I'm a man of many interests. Aside from actually writing a C program, here's what I'd happily do in my spare time:
In the field of computers, I also have a rather broad spectrum of interests, though my studies have concentrated in the areas of computer graphics and networking. If you wish to be offended by some blatant self-promotion, you may want to check out my resumé. I'm also highly interested in Linux, a freely-available operating system for the Intel 80386 or compatible computer.
My Master of Engineering project is a 3-D Modeler for Blobby Models or Metaballs under the supervision of Dr. Bruce Land. I am currently involved in another course project involving a survey of techniques in modeling human faces and a resolution-independent and portable audio effects editor.
