About Me

Hi! My name is Kevin and I'm currently a

second year Computer Science Co-op student

at the

University of Waterloo

I love to build software that make our day-to-day lives easier or that are just cool. I have been working to improve my skills in AI/ML and it is my dream to enter this field someday. I also really love algorithms and problem-solving through competitive programming on

Codeforces

and

Leetcode

Outside of coding, I love playing badminton or binge watching Youtube Shorts. I also love listening to pop music! Check out what I'm currently listening to:
