About Me
I'm Ng Ting Sheng
I’m a young and aspiring Software Engineer.
I am proficient in backend development and database engineering, and I am interested in building large-scale distributed system.
Logics and algorithms are my language and I like to perfect them though out of the box thinking.
I’m passionate in all things I do, so being stagnant is just not my thing.
I always push myself to step out of my comfort zone, exploring new things and striving to achieve greater height along the way.
While I am not developing codes, I am probably playing the black and white keys on the piano.
