A Little About Myself
Hi, my name is Kevin Tang. I am a recent graduate from the University of Illinois at Chicago, having obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science with a Software Engineering concentration.
Even post-graduation, the education and learning doesn't end, and that's something for me to look forward to. As someone always seeking new knowledge and self-motivated to constantly better myself, I make the opportunities happen, and there are plenty in the world that I see.
As of now, I'm looking for a full-time position where I shall contribute my skills and experience alongside a hardworking team, driven to make a difference through delivering efficient code and advancing technology.
UIC Community Involvement
Kappa Pi Beta Fraternity, Inc. -
Joining this brotherhood has taught me more about life than I ever thought attending college would have. During my activehood in this
organization, I have learned the true meaning of brotherhood, leadership, integrity, and expressing the qualities of which
a disciplined gentleman should have. Through working hard as a team, being involved on campus, and hundreds of service hours,
Kappa Pi Beta is one of the biggest factors in what got me where I am today.
Passion
Simply put, video games have been undoubtedly one of the biggest factors in my personal development. From sitting on my living room floor playing party games with my family, to competing in multiple tournaments and leading large communities, my passion for gaming has made me who I am today. It was the absolute deciding factor for me to pursue a Computer Science degree, and also what connected me to some of my closest friends. Every aspect of video games, including the gameplay, the art, the competition, the people, and even the losses are something that I have grown to constantly appreciate.
Nowadays, you'll probably catch me putting free time into World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Counter-Strike, Hearthstone, or maybe battling it out in Street Fighter or Marvel at a local gaming lounge. Some personal achievements of mine include placing first in more than 20 local and regional tournaments for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and being a founding member and leader of a server rank 1 raiding guild in WoW.
