About Me
Greetings, I'm Danny, a recent Computer Science graduate from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver . Originally from Shenzhen, China, I'm passionate about technology and the positive impact it can have on people's lives.
I'm a dedicated and detail-oriented individual who takes great pride in my work and strives to solve complex problems with efficiency and precision. My strengths include my ability to learn and adapt quickly, which has helped me stay up-to-date with the latest trends and technologies in the ever-changing field of computer science.
This September, I am excited to further my journey by pursuing a Master's degree in Cybersecurity at Simon Fraser University. I am eager to deepen my understanding and enhance my skills in this vital area of technology.
In my free time, I enjoy playing video games and exploring the latest gaming trends. I'm also passionate about fitness and regularly engage in a range of physical activities, from weightlifting to cardio workouts. Looking to the future, my ultimate goal is to become a reliable developer and make a meaningful contribution to the industry. I'm particularly interested in the gaming industry, and I hope to work on projects that allow me to blend my passion for gaming with my programming skills. Ultimately, I want to create video games that bring joy and happiness to people, and make a positive impact on society. Thanks for taking the time to learn a little bit more about me. If you have any questions or would like to connect, please don't hesitate to reach out.
