About me

Hello,

I am Pauline Tang, and I am from the California Bay Area. I recently graduated from UC Berkeley with a Bachelor of arts in computer science in Spring 2024.

Currently, I am enjoying some time off after graduating, traveling with family, spending time with friends, and putting the skills I learned to use by working on some fun side projects (check out my most recent project below!).

I am also actively seeking new graduate software engineering roles where I can leverage my strong background in programming, full-stack development, and software engineering principles. I am eager to contribute to innovative projects and collaborate with a dynamic team to develop cutting-edge software solutions. If your organization is looking for a dedicated and skilled software engineer ready to make an impact, I would love to connect.

Outside of the computer screen, I enjoy bullet journaling, sketching, and going on walks with my dog, Lucky 🐾 !

GITLET

Version control system that supports 12 user commands such as add, commit, rm, branch, checkout. Uses SHA-1 (Secure Hash 1) encryption of files and commits for content addressable storage. Serializes the internal structures of the system by designing classes that implement the Java Serializable interface.

JUMP

Two-player strategy board game inspired by KJumpingCube with the ability to play with a computer opponent. Combined artificial intelligence via the concept of game trees, alpha-beta pruning and the minimax zero-sum game algorithm that uses a custom-created heuristic of the current game state to determine the next optimal move.
