Introduce yourself to everyone.
Hello! My name is Kyle Nguyen.
I am a 3rd-year undergraduate student at the University of Alberta.
Majoring in Computing Science and minoring in Mathematics.
What do you do?
I code! I like to work with software development, full-stack development, game development and sometimes a bit of animation.
What kind of stuff are you working on right now?
As of right now, I'm focusing on smaller-based projects. As in: small development web-apps, animation, hackathons/competition-based projects, etc... I'd like to go more into building larger scale projects and hopefully work on some open-sourced ones aswell.
That sound's really interesting.
Thanks! I think so too.
What's a cool thing about you?
I found out lamb meant sheep meat and baby sheep. I always thought lamb was it's own animal.
I guess that's cool.
but, who are you?
I enjoy trying everything. Whether it is new skills, new hobbies, random facts, if it's interesting to me--i've got to try and learn it. I've gained so many new outlooks, prespectives and experiences through always being open to change.
Wow! What's the influence for this website design?
I wanted it to look like a magazine interview!
^^ Some concepts I made ^^
Experience & Volunteering
Coding Instructor
Coding Ninjas
As a sensei (what a fun word to use), I assist in developing coding skills with children through platforms involving Microsoft MakeCode, Unity, JavaScript and Python. Through the curriculum I teach foundational coding skills, key concepts, and creative thinking.
Software Programmer
Alberta Bionix
At Alberta Bionix, a University of Alberta biomedical club I am apart of the software developer subdivision. As of right now, I am working as the main programmer in the CVKAS (Computer Vision Kinematics Analysis System) development.
Barista / Web Developer
Boxcar Coffeeshop
As a barista at Boxcar, I created, decorated, and served confectionaries and desserts. Also, along with working within a tight-knit community I've gained meaningful experiences and relationships with our guests. More on, I ensured and maintained a clean and welcoming environment for guests while supporting their needs.
Volunteer
Meals On Wheels
Over at Meals On Wheels, I was a volunteer meal-prepper. I assisted in preparing ingredients used to create meal portions for those in need in the surrounding areas. I also helped in the packaging and sorting of meals, making sure to be aware of each individual hamper's dietary restrictions and needs.
Projects
This is where a lot of fun stuff happens...
uAlberta Microwaves: A real-time microwave map submitted by students
Technology used: Python, JS, Flask, PostgreSQL, SQLite SQLalchemy, Leaflet.js, HTML, CSS, FastAPI,
I remember back in my freshman year of University, I'd often go "Where are the nearest microwaves? Does this campus just have none?!". I don't want other students to feel like there's no option to reheat their soggy leftovers or frozen meal prep. A pretty fun and useful side-project made during winterbreak 2025.
Made using Python & Flask for the backend, PostgreSQL for the database, JavaScript and leaflet.js for the frontend. For hosting I used Render.
NeuroMotion: A EEG-Based Brain Computer Interface
Technology used: Python, Flask, PyTorch, MNE, HTML, CSS, OpenBCI
Pretty cool project I'd say. Made in a group of 6, we developed an software that processes, filters and reads EEG signals. From the signals we then put it through a machine learning model classifying which movement is predicted. Special thanks to: Kishan Prasad, Daniel Yau, Chidinma Obi-Okoye, Lance Quintos, Manas Joshi. A really fun experience!
Specifically, I developed the front-end using JavaScript and Flask. Additionally, I programmed the code to read the Ganglion Unit to read EEG signals. From the signals I applied filtering and feature abstraction to input the information into our ML model.
Web-dev. Made with intentions of being clean, simple, and full of character. I pay respects to the owners of Boxcar, for the opportunity. Thank you.
I used HTML, CSS, JS to create the website, GoDaddy services for web hosting, and Adobe Fonts for font.
