Hey, I'm Kye (they/them). I'm currently a student studying Cognitive Science at UC Berkeley. This blog is where I write about psychology, books, music, and other topics I'm learning about.
I first started this blog in summer 2024. Bored and restless to do something useful with my free time, I learned how to code websites on freeCodeCamp and read books such as Austin Kleon's Show Your Work!, which inspired me to document my learning and progress as a writer, musician, and student.
As a pre-med student, I am mainly interested in exploring how the brain works, why certain psychiatric and neurological disorders persist, and what treatments provide the best quality care for those in need of mental health aid. Since I am interested in many disciplines related to medicine, psychology, and more, I am currently exploring in school and research settings to narrow down my specialty.
Other interests of mine include music, writing, teaching, and applications of computer science to improving healthcare and education.
In my free time, I like reading, weightlifting, befriending neighborhood cats, playing guitar in my jazz combo, and learning languages (currently learning Spanish).
