Welcome to my resume    

Hi, my name is Levi Cai.

Though sometimes I wish I were a DJ, I actually spin a different kind of disk millions of times faster.

I am a graduate from the University of Pennsylvania with a major in Computer Science and minor in Mathematics.

Select a coloured hard drive sector to see what other kinds of data I have stored. Who knows, maybe some of it is music to you too?
