What I've been up to
I'm a passionate 3rd year Computer Science student at Mount Royal University, expected to graduate in May 2027. My journey combines academic excellence with practical experience in both development and education.
As a Computer Science Educator at Eureka Learning Center, I've taught programming concepts to over 70 students across different age groups, from Scratch for ages 6-8 to Python for ages 11-18. This experience has sharpened my ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and adapt to different learning styles.
One of my most exciting projects is the Krumbz Recipe App, which I'm developing collaboratively with friends. The app features advanced web scraping technology, AI-assisted ingredient processing, and innovative photo scanning capabilities that allow users to take pictures of their fridge contents or grocery receipts to automatically identify ingredients and choose recipes based on the ingredients available.
