Li Chen

Full Stalk Javascript Developer

Welcome to my page

I am a professor at UNC. My job consists of teaching, administrative work, conducting research, and course design. I am a people person and love to interact with others. I work helping students to achieve their goals. My work requires problem solving skills and constant learning so that I can be an effective instructor and clinician. Outside of work, I am very involved with my church. I am part of a graduate student ministry at UNC. I love teaching; however, I realized that I enjoy designing course content through web-applications the most. As a researcher, teacher, and administrator, I realized that I could design applications to make the job more efficient. Therefore, I decided to pursue the Coding Boot Camp at UNC. I just completed the Coding Bootcamp while working full-time. I am seeking a web-developer position.

"Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it"

Brian W. Kernighan (Canadian computer scientist, co-author of “C programming language”)

“There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult.”

C.A.R. Hoare (British computer scientist, winner of the 1980 Turing Award)

"The best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to study great programs that other people have written. In my case, I went to the garbage cans at the Computer Science Center and fished out listings of their operating system."

Bill Gates
