JOHNNY NGUYEN
Welcome to my website, I'd like to share some of what I'm working on and a little about me!
I'm a CS student at Purdue University with too many hobbies.
About Me

Hello! My name is Johnny Nguyen and I have interests in CS, Math, AI, fitness, badminton, and many more activities I wish I had time for. I’m a first-generation Computer Science student at Purdue University.
I’m exploring machine learning research, building AI-driven apps in Python, and occasionally dabbling in game dev stuff.
I went to high school in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where I also received my Associate's Degree from Vincennes University via an early college program. During that time, I served as a tutor and helped coordinate events.
Beyond academics, you’ll usually find me hitting the badminton courts, lifting at the gym, or relaxing.
Biography & Hobbies
Early Interests
My interest in Computer Science and AI stems from popular media and a natural curiosity about how computers work. I remember reading up on PC components at a young age and eventually built my own system.
My first coding experience was with Scratch in high school. I made a basic game, then took Harvard's CS50 for more advanced prep.
Learning & Research
At Purdue, I'm currently studying my fundamental CS courses and textbooks.
I enjoy applying classroom concepts to personal projects.
Next year, I'll join the Data Mine Corporate Partners, building real-world projects with a corporate sponsor (e.g. Google, Microsoft).
I recently interned at Degreecat as a Software & Data Engineer, building Python scripts for extracting data from 150+ colleges. Read more in my resume!
Personal Life & Hobbies
I love badminton, bodybuilding, gaming, and watching tv shows. I also enjoy playing bass guitar.
I started lifting at 15, focusing on bodybuilding at 17.
Projects

Social Media App
A social media app built with Java for CS180's final team project.
