<h2>nice to meet you,</h2><br>
<h2>i'm </h2><h2 class="highlight">emily hong</h2><h2> 👋</h2>

<p>
I'm currently a software engineer @ <a href="https://www.viam.com/">Viam</a>, based in NYC. I recently graduated from Harvard with a concentration in computer science and educational studies. In everything I do, I strive to learn as much about the world as I can, and share my perspective on those things through art, technology, and education.
</p>
<p>
When I'm not working, you can find me exploring grocery stores, doodling in a park, tickling the ivories, working on DIY projects, or playing with my food.
