Hello!

Profile photo of Hao Chen

I'm Hao Chen, a master's student in Digital Sciences in Paris. I enjoy working on data science and web development projects that make the world a better place for everyone.


In my spare time, I enjoy learning coding just for fun, whether it's exploring new technologies or solving algorithm problems that I've never encountered before. I also love practicing meditation and yoga, as well as playing board games with friends.
