Mechatronics Engineering @UWaterloo

I'm passionate about systems integration and thrive at the intersection of mechanics, hardware, and software. Currently, I spend most of my time as the Co-Captain of WatArrow — UWaterloo's SAE Aero Design Team. In my free time, I enjoy collegiate debate and astronomy. J'apprends aussi le Français!
