Hi. I am Yu Lu, a software engineer and a mother of 2.

Welcome to LittleCheeseCake, my personal corner of the internet where I share my thoughts, learning, and experiences.

Here I write about life, technology, and personal finance.

I started journaling as a teenager and have been blogging online for more than 20 years. It’s my way of reflecting on my journey, documenting what I learn, and sharing knowledge with others who might find it useful. Writing helps me think more clearly and retain what I learn. If my posts help even one person along the way, that’s a bonus.

Whether you’re a fellow software engineer, someone interested in personal finance and FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early), or just curious about tech and life, I hope you find something valuable here.
