About Me

I am a 3rd year software engineering student at Concordia University. There is no surprise that coding is a big part of my life. I enjoy taking complex problems and turning them into solutions. I also love the software development process from designing to production. It is challenging, yet so rewarding. Some of my favorite technologies are React JS and Spring Boot. They provide fast and efficient solution to building a robust application.

Furthermore, I enjoy meeting new people and finding way to build a strong and lasting relationship. I lead a team as VP event for Concordia Canadian Asian Society. We turn creative ideas into reality by designing, planning, and organizing social events for Montreal student community.
