Hi! I'm Alex, a.k.a. nim. The above is my avatar.
I use she/her or they/them pronouns.

I'm currently a sophomore at my university majoring in computer science.
I've been programming as a hobby for a long time. Click to see some of my projects.

My main hobby is technical Super Mario 64. In it I make tool-assisted
speedruns and do hacking and reverse-engineering. I've also worked on
the SM64 decompilation.

I'm also interested in linguistics, with a particular interest in
Northwest Caucasian languages. I've been into conlanging for a long time,
and I've been a member of the toki pona community for over 2 years.

I'm also a big transit nerd. Since November 2023, I've logged every
ride I've taken on public transit in detail in a massive spreadsheet.
My main local transit agencies are Muni, BART, AC Transit, and SamTrans.

Some other small off-and-on hobbies of mine include speedcubing, chess,
Geometry Dash, and being competitive at Advent of Code.

Much of my notable SM64 work is on my YouTube.
My main public social media is my Mastodon page at @alexing@tech.lgbt.
The best way to contact me is on Discord at nim#6398, or by gmail at alexing105.
