I'm a first-year graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at University of Toronto.
I'm mainly interested in Compilers, Programming Languages, and Systems Design and Implementations.
I received my Honours Bachelor of Science from University of Toronto, double majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics. After graduation, I spent over a year working at Amazon Ads as a software developer in Vancouver, Canada before deciding to head back to graduate school in Toronto.
I also spent a year working at AMD as an intern where I was the lead engineer on developing the backend for Blender3D to use the Heterogeneous-Compute Interface for Portability (HIP) ROCm platform.
I enjoy playing football, hiking, mountain climbing, spending time with friends and family, and reading.
