Hello! I am Helen Chong, a Millennial queer, autistic and visually impaired Malaysian Chinese person who goes by they/them or she/her pronouns.
Professionally, I am a web developer with 8 years of experience as a graphic designer. My hobbies include coding, reading, video games, drawing and crocheting.
I speak Mandarin Chinese, English, Cantonese and Malay, though I am most fluent in Mandarin and English, which is why this blog is available in English and Mandarin.
About This Blog
#![Logo of {{ sitemeta[page.lang].siteName }}](/assets/helenchong/galaxy-garden-logo.webp)
Galaxy Garden is my personal blog, launched on 8 October 2024.
The blog name is based on the name of my first blogs in the 2000s, Galaxy Park. I have always loved space, and I consider my personal blog my own garden on the web. Galaxy Garden being alliterative in English also helps. The name Galaxy Garden being similar but not the same as Galaxy Park reflects both my desire to return to my internet roots of blogging, and to start a new beginning of my blogging journey.
Technical information about Galaxy Garden can be found on the Colophon page.
