George Hum

I'm a boy from the little island of Penang, located in Malaysia. I love to enjoy life, experience new things, take risks, and push limits.

I studied in international schools in Penang leading up to my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at The University of Sheffield, proudly graduating with a First Class Honours.

Creating solutions ground-up to real problems with code is just one of my many interests. I also like anything that involves movement and outdoors. Mainly, I enjoy playing football, lifting, skating, and bouldering.

📍 At the time of writing, I'm currently on a mission to break my way into tech in the real world. I've only recently graduated, and will be spending time with my wonderful family and friends at home in Malaysia, until mid-September, when I will make my way back again to the UK and begin my application for the graduate VISA.

I'm working hard to develop my own apps, to not only earn an income by delivering real value to real users, but also beef up my experience/résumé! Recently, I launched rsvpy, an app for organising events, solving a real problem of inefficiency in event management that I identified during my time at university.

Now, I've been contracted to build a company website for a super successful precision-engineering firm in Malaysia. Therefore, I'm currently working on that alongside a chrome extension AI tool that summarises highlighted text - to help me speed up my reading (mainly during my job search).
