Welcome! I am currently a Computer Science student on my last semester at The University of British Columbia in the BCS program. Prior to this, I graduated with an Engineering degree and worked as a manufacturing quality supervisor for PepsiCo. During this time, I played around with VBA and Python scripts to automate repetitive tasks, sparking my interest in programming. I started tinkering with web dev technologies and was instantly hooked. After completing many courses, learning new skills, and getting full stack experience at a fast paced company, the fire I had for programming burns even brighter. I find joy in continuous learning and am always looking for ways to develop myself. I completed a 1 year Software Developer internship at Visier, focusing on full stack web development using TypeScript, Angular, and Scala. In my free time I enjoy the outdoors by staying active through soccer, freestyle skiing, and hiking. I also enjoy spending time at the gym and gaming with friends.
