About Me
Technologies I Work With:
I have always loved computers, but what really got me hooked was my first computer science co-op term. After my first two terms of school at the University of New Brunswick, I worked for a local Fredericton start up company. This experience working in the field reinforced my passion for programming. I then returned to studies and after another two terms, decided to push myself further.
I transferred to the University of Waterloo starting fall of 2025 to continue my career at a larger university that offers a greater challenge. I am so excited for what the next chapter of both my life and career will bring.
While transferring will certainly push me, I decided to start investing time to independently improve my skills as well. I did this through online courses to learn new things and personal projects to practice my skills.

Personal Projects
When creating my portfolio website, I decided to take this opportunity to learn about how AI can be used as a tool to make coding easier.
To maximize my learning, I decided to design the website from scratch instead of using a website template. With the help of Cursor AI, I built the website using React and Tailwind CSS.
This project gave me a great chance to learn about both web development and how AI can be used as a tool. These two skills will be very useful for my future career.
