I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science with a major in Computer Science at The University of Auckland, aiming to graduate in 2026. I have served as the Student Class Representative for CompSci120, acting as a vital link between staff and students to resolve any arising issues effectively. My experience as a rowing coxswain taught me leadership under pressure, effective communication, and how to inspire team confidence through race strategy and in-the-moment decision making. I am passionate about creating meaningful and engaging technological experiences. I have developed strong coding skills in Python, Java, SQL, and C, focusing on building interactive applications with real-world impact, including charity event software integrating live programmable events. Additionally, I am highly experienced in video editing and content creation, running a YouTube channel as a hobby and continuously improving my editing skills using tools like DaVinci Resolve.
