Computer Science!
I love creating interactive things with code, ranging from game and app development to weird generative art stuff. I'm currently pursuing a Masters in Computer Science at the University of Toronto as part of the Dynamic Graphics Project lab, where my research interests explore the areas around HCI/vis/graphics and creative authoring tools. I feel lucky to be co-supervised by the wonderful Fanny Chevalier and Alec Jacobson.
