Education
Saigon University (SGU)
BSc Computer Engineering
2022 - Ongoing
During my time at SGU I learnt most of my key skills that have I have taken through my career such as teamwork and working to tight deadlines. I thouroughly enjoyed my time as university and learnt a lot about a healthy work life balance.
Projects
Quiz management system for schools, teachers or simply want to organize a quiz test.
I started this project as a way to learn about Java and OOP. In its early days, it was just a simple CLI software without a database. With the collaboration of my friends at university, I continued to develop it into a beautiful GUI application that can be used over a LAN. Although it is not yet production-ready due to existing bugs and incomplete features (primarily within the GUI processing layer), I successfully developed and solidified the core backend functionality, ensuring its smooth operation.
JavaFX Socket Multithreading MariaDB/MySQL Networking Excel Processing
These are projects written in Go.
sgublogsite: During my internship as a System Administrator, alongside core responsibilities of deploying, monitoring, and maintaining requested services, I embarked on developing a school news website. Driven by a desire to learn, this project provided me with valuable experience in: web development process (outside my expertise), practical Go programming and library usage, and foundational web security principles. A website with simple technology for stability and security. However, due to limitations in frontend implementation, the project remains incomplete. I made the decision to discontinue development to focus on new projects better aligned with my core competencies and career goals.
- Go Chi HTMX MariaDB/MySQL
craftt was born from observing my brother’s struggle to manage our Proxmox-hosted Minecraft server due to limited terminal/SSH knowledge. This web app simplifies server control with one-click start/stop, live log viewing, and command execution. Beyond solving accessibility issues, it became a learning platform where I mastered Linux container process control, built secure TLS-enabled Go servers, and engineered real-time WebSocket data streaming for log interactions.

Dockerized Local Service Deployment Toolkit
This small project started simply because I wanted to learn Docker. It’s not a real-world tool, but it helps my university friends quickly set up local services like DNS or FTP for study purposes. Through this project, I’ve improved my shell scripting skills and finally understood Docker concepts hands-on.
Linux Server Docker Shell TUI Networking
My Workflow Optimization: Minimal, performance-focused. Extremely fast and small without sacrificing convenience.
I started exploring the world of Linux when I first entered high school. After a period of using Windows and gaining some experience in troubleshooting and problem-solving, I decided to switch to a new home - GNU/Linux. Through my journey with multiple Linux distributions and continuous exploration, I gained a deeper understanding of many computer-related concepts, including hardware, networking, and how an operating system works. I also started learning programming and created my own development environment on Linux, which is my Dotfiles.
