About Me

Recent UTSC Graduate

Shawn at Vagamon, Kerela

I'm a recent graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Statistics from UTSC, and an eager aspiring Full Stack Developer. While statistics provided me with a strong foundation in data analysis and problem-solving, I've been captivated by the world of web development. The ability to translate ideas into interactive and user-friendly web applications truly excites me.

During my statistics studies, I discovered a passion for working with data in a more visual and interactive way. This led me to explore programming languages like Python and R for data visualization. However, I wanted the ability to build the complete user experience, not just the data analysis behind it. That's when I delved into the world of web development, and I haven't looked back!
