Updates

• I graduated from Columbia in May 2024, and I'll be joining the e-trading team at Jefferies as an analyst.
  Spoiler alert: I'll be working primarily on KDB and Python, but there might be something in Java as well.
  

Bio

Hi, my name is Xintong Qi (pronounced Shin-ton Chi) and I go by Amy.
I studied at Columbia and CityU for my bachelors', and I majored in computer science at both institutes.

I'm a chill person and I like to code with Radiohead's OK Computer in my headsets. I'm comfortable with commonly used languages, like Python, Java, C/CPP, JavaScript and SQL, and I'm trying to pick up something more niche such as array languages.

Well, enough of tech jargons. Please go to my LinkedIn and GitHub for more. For now I'll dig into some personal stuff because this is a personal website. At least it's supposed to be one:)

Reach me at xq2224 at columbia dot edu. (yes, it's still active!)

Why This Website?

To keep myself busy, and to build something neat. I believe in the power of words, and I refuse to use any fancy framework here.

• React

These are KDB related blogs.
