It started with
the joy of making.

As a child, I made games in PowerPoint. I learned 3D modeling and Flash, then made fan games inspired by the games I loved.

After researching video codecs at Kyung Hee University Media Lab, I built products and systems as a backend engineer, CTO and CoreBanking TPM. Today, I publish my own games and software through IF0.

I share my development experience as a Software Maestro mentor, contribute to open source and take part in hackathons. I am particularly interested in functional programming and language design.

Code inside if (0) never runs. I named the studio IF0 because I want to make software that would not exist unless I built it myself.
