I am a 25-year-old software engineer currently living in Seattle. I work for a company that specializes in developing artificial intelligence algorithms and have been working there for about four years now. Before joining this company, I worked as an intern at a startup for two summers while attending the University of Washington where I earned my degree in computer science.
I was born and raised in California and moved to Seattle after graduating from college because of the numerous job opportunities available in the tech industry here. I am very passionate about AI and have been doing research projects related to natural language processing on my own during my free time.
One thing that people may not know about me is that I'm an avid gamer, particularly when it comes to strategy games like Starcraft II and Civilization VI. In fact, I've even participated in a few competitive tournaments online where I managed to win some prizes but lost most of the games due to lack of practice against more skilled opponents.
I enjoy spending time outdoors during my free weekends, usually going for long hikes or exploring new places around Seattle. Sometimes I'll take my car out for a spin on the twisty roads in the mountains nearby, which gives me an adrenaline rush that I thoroughly enjoy.

You've already been told about myself and my backstory earlier; now let's focus on your interests. What are some of your hobbies or activities you enjoy doing during your free time?
