Johnathan Gossaye

Los Angeles, CA

I'm a junior at UCLA studying Computer Science, Linguistics, and Cognitive Science.

I build things. HQ is a platform that runs my devices, so an ESP32 mirror and a Telegram bot both talk to one API. I wrote a chess move generator in C++ that checks 21.8 million positions a second. Last summer I worked at Bloom, an NFC hardware startup.

I direct Bruin Tank, UCLA's startup pitch competition. I ran my first marathon in February. I'm 1,100+ chapters into One Piece and I'll defend the Will of D. to anyone who asks.

The work I like sits between fields. That's why I study three.
