About
I'm currently a junior at the University of Waterloo studying Computer Science as my major. I have strong technical skills and an academic background in computer science, mathematics, and statistics with in-depth industry experience acquired through internships.
In my latest work experience, which was a co-op (internship) at Huawei Technologies as a Software Engineering Intern, I was a part of the data security team and was responsible for implementing access control at the kernel level. I worked in C and C++ and created multiple mechanisms to enforce file security.
When I'm not at the computer, I'm usually learning about finance or working on a side project.
