Tell us about yourself along with a fun fact!
I’m just some kid with dreams of travelling the world from Richmond Hill, Ontario. I’m a hackathon veteran with a current total of fourteen. I ran THacks 2 in October and I also helped run a lot of events in the city and teach lessons at my school. I work part time a software developer and clean code, along with linting makes me very happy. I consider hackathons to be my education and I’ve recently found my hobby to be in competitive programming(of course, work is “work”). In attempt not to seem like a total nerd, I’m also a ski instructor (CSIA Level 1), was on the race team last year and I have a collection of almost a hundred carnivorous plants.
