Li, Xin
A software craftsman in the making & a hobbyist of everything else.
Hi! My name is Xin. I'm a master's student studying computer science at University of Pennsylvania. Before Penn, I spent seven years studying and practicing law in Shanghai. But programming and creating things are so much fun that I went back to school to learn cool stuff like natural language processing and embedded systems.
I'm looking for summer internship or an interesting project to join or start in the summer. Hit me up if you got some cool ideas in mind.
Check out my coursework plan.

Creations:
- Open source software projects on Github.
- Paintings, graphic designs and 3D models on deviantART.
- Photography works on Flickr.
- Music and sound experiments on SoundCloud.
- …and delicious Asian food in my kitchen. :)
Extra Bits:
- My Chinese name is: 李馨. I'd tell the story behind it over a fine glass of cocktail, preferably gin and tonic, with ice and lime.
- I believe in the beauty of minimalism and also in 職人気質, which is a Japanese concept of “the spirit of a true craftsman”.
- My favorite artists are: Keith Haring, who drew about life but died young; and Francis Bacon, who drew about death yet lived long.
