Thijs Simonian
full-stack developer • maker • student @ stanford
Hey there!
I'm Thijs, a maker and student from the Bay Area. I enjoy making things that explore behind the scenes in unique areas, such as public transportation, data visualization, and belonging.
I love long bike rides, exploring transit systems, and making things that light up.
Now: Intern at Discord, incoming student at Stanford.
Previously: Youth board member at SFMTA.
