hey, i'm ricky. i'm a software engineer and researcher based in davao, philippines. i have been programming since i was ten and competing in scientific research since grade 9. i care a lot about building things that are actually useful, whether that is a tool someone deploys at their school or a study that gets picked apart by scientists. i love formula 1, digging into research papers, and occasionally losing too many hours to a good game.
i'm currently an incoming cs student at ateneo de davao university. i freelance on the side and mentor two student research groups. if you want to talk, reach out through any of the links on the contact page.
