About
Hello, I'm Ken Paxton Lim. I am a software engineer with experience in the software/game/frontend industries. I am proficient in Frontend (React & React Native), Game Development (UE4 & Unity), Javascript, HTML, CSS, Java, C, and C++. My passion for coding is supercharged by my degree in Bachelor of Computing in Computer Science from National University of Singapore (NUS). My aim in life is to be a constant learner because knowledge fuels my energy. I am very keen in exploring the other areas of computer science apart from frontend/graphics/games, and I hope that I can be given the opportunity to do so. I am also a diversity and inclusion advocate because I firmly believe that everyone deserves equal treatment. In my free time, I like to workout in the gym, sunbathe at the beach or park, or sweat it out in a hike.
