Hello! I'm Ming Yang,

A Software Engineer.|


About me

/

Hi! I'm Ming Yang, a 4th year Computer Science student at the National University of Singapore. I am deeply fascinated and active within the Web 3 space and I'm currently exploring the possibilities of blockchain technology.
In 2022, I spent the year in Toronto as part of the NUS Overseas Colleges program, giving me the opportunity to work (fulltime), study (University of Toronto) and go for conferences (NFT NYC, ETHToronto, Blockchain Futurist, Solana Lisbon Hacker House and Solana Breakpoint, Lisbon).
In my free time, you can find me diving (always up for any spontaneous adventures), coding or shooting photos.


Here's what I'm currently working on in 2023:

VERI:
A blockchain-enabled luxury secondhand marketplace that aims to provide a safe and secure platform for users to buy and sell authentic luxury goods.

NFC-NFT:
A project that looks to link NFC chips to NFTs immutably and verifiably.

Opportunities

As I'm graduating May 2023, I'm currently looking for a full-time position in the blockchain/Web 3 space. I'm open to any opportunities, so feel free to reach out to me!
