About

A little bit of me

As a recent graduate from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, specializing in Software Engineering, I am excited to embark on my professional journey in the tech industry. During my time at the university, I had the opportunity to work with various startup companies. This experience allowed me to enhance my skills in technologies like ReactJS, Python, SQL, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Working in these dynamic environments taught me the importance of adaptability, multitasking, and continuous learning. Apart from my academic and professional endeavors, I have a keen interest in building and benchmarking PCs, utilizing the latest technologies in the market. Currently, my primary interest lies in deepening my understanding of data structures and algorithms—a passion I am eager to apply in a full-time role. With a blend of academic knowledge and practical experience, I am ready to contribute to and grow within the tech industry.
