Yusheng Xu18

Chengdu, China

Hi! I’m a high school student from Chengdu, China. I love programming and enjoy building useful and creative apps. Coding allows me to explore new ideas and solve real problems. Besides tech, I’m passionate about music—listening to songs helps me relax and think. Taylor Swift is my favorite artist. I’m always eager to learn more and use technology to make life better and more inspiring.
