Ā Iāve followed in my sisterās footsteps my entire life.Ā We went to the same high school, the exact same university and program (we even lived together), and Iām hoping to break into the tech industry just like her! I know I can always ask her about anything and lean on her for support 24/7.
Ā I was born & raised on the West Coast of Canada in Vancouver, BC but moved across the country for university. Iāll never get used to the frigid -30 Ā°C/-22 Ā°F East Coast winters but Iāll always be grateful for the lifelong friends and lifetime memories I have made in my 5 years here!Hobbies
Ā I rediscovered my childhood love of reading at the start of COVID and havenāt stopped since! Iāve read 179 books since and some of my favourites are: Why We Sleep (Health), Shoe Dog (Business), Dark Matter (Sci-Fi), and People We Meet On Vacation (Romance).Ā Running is something I simply have to do at least 2 times a week. Iāve ran races ranging in distance from 10KM to half-marathons (21.1KM) in Seattle, Vancouver, and Toronto. My most recent 10K time was 45:46! Ā Iām a huge fan of hockey & basketball. Iāve cheered for my hometown team, the Vancouver Canucks, since I was 6 (more bad years than good) and Iāve been a fan of the Toronto Raptors since way before they won the 2019 title (not a bandwagoner).Connecting with Justin
