hey! i'm an incoming electrical engineering student at UWaterloouwaterloo

I like building things

About

I started programming as a hobby in grade 8. Since then I've built lots of projects, dabbling in web development, robotics, embedded software, and machine learning. I'm currently interested in electronics, low level computing, and the intersection of hardware and software.

I am currently learning physics and compiler theory, building my own server, and doing lots of sidequests.

recently

  • interned at sunnybrook, designing PCBs for noninvasive brain surgery
  • organized canada's largest high school hackathon
  • spent a year building modular e-bike conversion kits to eradicate barriers to mobility [backed by bloomberg philanthropies]
