Hi, I am

KYLIE CHUA
(Kia Ying)

Welcome to my website!

I’m a Computer Science student at Singapore Management University, with a second major in Quantitative Finance.

I’m deeply curious about the world — from building robust software systems to exploring trading strategies and the dynamics of global markets. Whether it’s architecting full-stack applications, analyzing financial data, or diving into new domains, I enjoy connecting the dots between ideas, technology, and impact.

I’ve worked across software engineering, data analytics, and fintech — and I’m always seeking new challenges that push me to learn, grow, and contribute meaningfully. Let’s connect — I love collaborating with people who are driven, curious, and passionate about what they do.
