I grew up in Vancouver, Canada, and from a young age I was always curious about how things worked. I loved coding and spent a lot of time exploring software and cybersecurity, mostly out of genuine curiosity and the satisfaction of figuring things out.

In high school, I found balance through sports, especially volleyball. Playing competitively taught me a lot about teamwork, communication, and staying calm under pressure. I have been doing karate since I was five, and I recently got my black belt, which has been a huge personal achievement for me because it shows the value of commitment and hardwork. Another major part of my growth came from being a police cadet with the Vancouver Police Department, where I served as a corporal.

I love making new projects that actually interest me and matter. Currently, I'm creating projects involving computer vision and machine learning. Just recently, I built an AI assisted AR repair system for QHacks, check it out on my GitHub if you're interested! One of my biggest hobbies right now is playing poker with friends because of the amount of math, critical thinking, and analysis you need to do in the game. It's also just pretty fun.
