🎓 I am a CS grad at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC. My previous degree was a B.Sc in Honours Biochemistry at the University of Windsor.
✨I love building and scaling communities. I'm currently building Tech Career North🍁 [formerly Tech Career Change] - a community for Canadian tech talent.
🌐 I've organized 9+ hackathons with 300-1,000+ attendees, mentored at 10+ hackathons, hosted panels and career-oriented workshops, and participated in numerous speaking engagements. I've also given lectures, including one at UBC.
