Hello there. Thanks for checking out my website!
I'm a second-year Computer Science student at the University of Toronto with minors in French and City Studies.
I have a great interest in programming, urban planning, language learning, parks and nature, alternative music, and creating cool stuff.
I'm based in the best city in the world, Toronto, ON, but I hail from the equally great London, ON.
