👋 Hi, I'm CK! I'm currently a senior computer science student at Wilfrid Laurier University 🏫 and a self-taught software developer. I strive to make people's lives easier through innovative and cost-effective web applications and software solutions.
I thrive on problem-solving and am curious about building applications from scratch. My core values are caring, curiosity, and a desire to improve. Tech can be daunting, but my eagerness to learn helps me adapt. My passion lies in developing software solutions that not only solve problems but also make people's lives easier, no matter how small the effect.

- Worked at HawkHacks, a student-run hackathon organization at Wilfrid Laurier University, primarily contributing to its complex landing page, which attracted over 10,000 visitors and achieved a 10% conversion rate.
- Planned, designed and built a machine user interface for Nfinite Nanotech, a startup advanced material company that makes smart nanocoating for sustainable packaging.
- Career Development: After realizing how limited I was by focusing mainly on frontend development while working in a team, I decided to shift my focus from purely frontend to full-stack software development, learning new technologies along the way.
- Became a Great Developer: Committed to ongoing upskilling to eventually become a developer people can rely on and turn to with their software development questions.
- No Zero Day: Regardless of how busy I am, I ensure to make effort towards my goals every single day.
I would love to make friends who love to talk about tech in general, or collaborating on projects that are fun, innovative and interesting. Let's connect! 🌍
