Hi! I'm Junior.

a 22 year old software engineer based in Los Angeles, CA.

Who am I?

my full name is Heginio Jr Taeza and i was born in Manila, Philippines in October, 1999 then moved to the United States in February, 2004.

i am a wholehearted computer scientist and engineer, and i completely dedicate much of my free time finding clever ways to help make the world a better place. i strive to build myself both as a programmer and as an individual, and i am constantly challenging myself to push my own boundaries and become better than yesterday's me.

aside from being a hardcore tech enthusiast who spends hours on end programming in front of a computer screen, i enjoy going outside and observing the world around me. i have a passion for dancing, cooking, and fashion, and i absolutely love spending quality time with my beloved friends and family (and pets of course).

let us have a chat and i'd be more than happy to share more about myself!

I graduated from Mt. San Jacinto College in May, 2021 as an honor roll student holding three degrees as an AS in Computer Science, an AS in Mathematics, and an AA in Mathematics & Science.

I am now pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at the University of Southern California, and I will be graduating in May, 2023.

I hold knowledge in a variety of technical skills, tools, and courses, particularly with:

  • C++, Java, Python, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, REST API
  • Data Structures & Algorithms, Linux (OS), Artificial Intelligence
  • Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Probability & Statistics

I've Interned as a Software Engineer for AEVEX Aerospace from May to August 2021.

I worked on the development of a user interface that would connect AEVEX aircraft pilots to specific server networks (TCP/UDP) for communication with personnel on ground. I implemented the backend of this interface and optimized outdated algorithms to maximize broadcasting speeds. I also added extended operations onto the pilot's interface to support various mappings (shapes) of geographic regions for clienteles to receive.

I am thoroughly involved in aiding my community through volunteering and community service.

I've taken part of multiple Food Drives in Orange County to help feed those in need. I've volunteered at my local animal shelter to undertake duties of nursing the animals and cleaning of the facility.

On the more technical side, I've participated in several Hackathons that work toward spreading awareness of present global issues and tackling them such as global warming, adverse effects of COVID-19, and many more problems we face today.
