Bio

I am a PhD student in Computer science with a passion for sharing knowledge. I believe that no matter your skill level, there's always more to learn so I am glad to help you on your learning journey!

I love interacting with people. It is a wonderful thing when working with a peer or colleague to solve a problem, then seeing their eyes light up as you help guide them to a solution. That is what drives me when working with others. I think we can all learn from one another and helping each other discover new and exciting knowledge is the best way to connect people and make the world better.
