About Me
Steven

Hi! I'm Steven Chen. I am a Software Engineer at Meta working on Automated Privacy Detection and Coverage.

I recieved my my bachelors in Computer Science from Georgia Institute of Technology, concentrating in devices and media.

Some of my interests include IoT, fintech, and aerospace! I enjoy working in the backend and exploring new technologies. I am facinated by home automation, connected devices, and seeing how software can transform industries and ways of thinking!

In my spare time, you can find me tinkering with a Raspberry Pi, planning my next trip abroad, messing around home automation/networks, playing guitar and piano, or hiking and exploring the outdoors!
