About Me

I'm Daniel, an aspiring engineer located in the GTA. I am currently pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Waterloo, and constantly exploring the limitless possibilities of software and electronics. My enthusiasm has led me to grow an interest in programming, PCB design, embedded software development, and more recently, Machine Learning. This encourages me to continuously broaden my knowledge, and I am deeply passionate about taking on projects that align with my interests.
