About Me

I'm a first-year engineering student with a passion for hands-on problem solving and building things that make a difference.

Currently pursuing my engineering degree at McMaster University, I'm developing skills in design thinking, technical problem-solving, and collaborative project work. I believe in approaching challenges with creativity and persistence to find effective solutions.

Through the coursework in my program, I've gained hands-on experience with the engineering design process, working in teams to tackle real-world problems from concept to implementation.

Beyond Engineering

When I'm not working on school or projects, I enjoy staying active and having fun!

⚽ Sports & Activities

I like staying active and I play soccer. It helps me stay balanced and it's also taught me a lot about teamwork, which definitely carries over into my engineering projects.

🎳 Having Fun

I'm big on having fun and enjoying life. Whether it's bowling or trying something new, I bring the same energy to whatever I'm doing.
