I am a software engineer at Microsoft. I graduated from University of Toronto in June 2022. I am also a recipient of prestigious Lester B. Pearson Scholarship awarded to only 37 students in the world. I love computer science as much as I love entrepreneurship. After my first year, I launched a startup which received funding from University of Toronto's Hatchery. I have also won several entrepreneurship awards over the past few years. In my free time, I like to brainstorm ideas with my friends while I cook new delicious recipes.
