My name is Matt Chan.

I’m a Software Engineer by day, dabbling in various technologies such Rails 3 and Flex. I’ve been doing some more HTML/JavaScript (i.e. jQuery) and Twitter Bootstrap lately.

At night, I am an Assistant Instructor at Wah Lum Kung Fu & Tai Chi Academy, where I have been practicing martial arts since September 2007. I also manage the website for my school, take photos at events we do (still practicing my photography skills), and spend nearly all my free time there.

In between, I moderate the Fitness & Nutrition Stack Exchange, a Q&A website dedicated to exercise, fitness, improving performance, technique, and training as well at the Martial Arts Stack Exchange.

When I’m not at work or at the school, I’m generally at home, typically sleeping or doing computer-y things, maybe cooking, maybe cleaning, but mostly taking care of Convict cichlids and playing video games once in a while.
