I like to look for problems to turn them into ideas. 💻 ðŸ§

This webpage is built for me to put up stuffs I thought are cool and document how I learn to think. I always look for problems, and see if I can solve it, if not then maybe you can help me (teamwork make the dream work :)). I’m also interested in how technology and creativity can create practical impact for people and businesses, and I’m usually working on something that forces me to learn faster and to keep the momentum.
About
Right now, I'm studying Business with Finance at Bayes Business School (2023 - 2026). This where I learn about finance, businesses, and most importantly where I have a chance to learn about Machine Learning by Dr. Qinghua Lee
Before that, I studied at John Paul College (2019 - 2022) in New Zealand. One of the most beautiful places I've lived in, and in here I had my first chance to learn programming and data analysis by Mr. Jeff Isaacs.
My interests are building cool tools, finance, risk/credit thinking, analytics, automation, and AI workflows.
My style is to keep things simple, clean, measurable progress.
Projects
A short selection. I keep projects scoped and practical, each one should teach me something and produce an output.
- Projects hub — one page with links to everything I’m building.
- Local AI / LLM — running my own AI models locally.
- Vibe Coding — coding with LLMs to create fun stuffs.
- Finance & risk — turning concepts into short, applied write-ups, and how I use excel.
More code and ongoing work lives on GitHub.
Use code to explain
To help better understanding, I used code to help me understand the concepts better.
- Bitcoin Double-Spending Defense: Code to explain how proof-of-work prevents double-spending in Bitcoin this famous paper of Satoshi Nakamoto.

Bio
I’m currently in London and in my final year of my undergraduate degree. Originally, I was born and raised in Ninh Binh. But if I'm back to VN and most likely you find me in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. And I recommend you to visit those places once in your life.
