About Me

Hi! I’m Khongorzul M, an AI engineer passionate about music. I’m Co‑Founder & AI/ML Lead at Deep Tech LLC in Mongolia, a Google Developer Expert in AI/ML & Cloud, and host of the TechGals Talks podcast.

I started this blog on my birthday—Jan 16 🎉! Every year on this day, I reflect on who I’m becoming—what’s changing, what I love, what I want to create. It’s my annual ritual of rediscovering myself and updating my portfolio to match.

I love building at the intersection of creativity, music, and AI—whether it’s tools for music entertainment or impactful healthcare solutions. I believe stories matter, and I’m always thinking about how to make things better, more interesting, and useful.

How I Built It

Tech Stack

  • Frontend: React + TypeScript + Vite
  • Styling: Tailwind CSS with a custom design system
  • AI Integration: Google Gemini API for emotion‑based music descriptions
  • Development: Google Antigravity (AI‑powered IDE)
  • Deployment: Google Cloud Run with Docker
  • Analytics: Google Analytics

Design Philosophy

  • Minimal and intentional: White/black background for a clean aesthetic.
  • Pink highlights: Subtle use of my favorite color for a touch of sweetness.
  • Timeline format for About Me: Stories define us, so I presented my journey chronologically.
  • Projects & Research: Showcasing the work I love.
  • Bucket List: Inspired by Chip Huyen (my AI role model), this section lists my goals and dreams.
  • Music Icon (bottom right): A fun feature with Gemini‑generated creative descriptions for different emotional states (planned expansion).

What I’m Most Proud Of

  • Emotion Music Generator: Bridges my portfolio with my passion for music AI research, using Gemini to generate music descriptions that give visitors a personal, engaging glimpse of my work.
  • Timeline storytelling: The portfolio is a narrative, not just a resume, highlighting my journey as both a musician and technologist.
  • Intentional minimalism: Clean design, purposeful pink highlights, zero clutter—every element tells part of my story.
  • Built on my birthday using Antigravity: What could have taken weeks happened in hours, showcasing the magic of AI‑powered development!

See you next time!

Cheers 🥂,
Khongorzul Munkhbat
