Hello, I'm
Issac Ip
CS + Economics at Northeastern University. Into music, photography, and good company.
Who I am
I'm Issac — a rising second-year at Northeastern University studying Computer Science and Economics. I'm drawn to the intersection of technology, creative culture, and how people connect.
Outside of class you'll find me deep in a music rabbit hole, somewhere with a camera, or just hanging out with people I like. I think the best ideas come from being genuinely curious — about people, places, and everything in between.
This site is a little corner of the internet that's mine — a place to share what I'm listening to, reading, watching, and thinking about.
