More About Me
I developed a passion for computer science while I was doing my undergrad in astrophysics.
Due to the difficulty involved in conducting outer space experiments, my colleagues and I were often challenged to
better understand the universe by using code to simulate it.
The logic-based thinking and mathematical problem-solving involved in
programming has called to me ever since! I love to tinker with code and find unique ways to solve problems.
