About Me

Hi, I'm Faiz, a software developer passionate about creating innovative solutions. With a strong interest in AI and web development, I aim to leverage my full-stack development skills in real-world applications. Beyond my technical pursuits, I'm an avid sports fan, enjoying playing and watching soccer, basketball, badminton, and more!

Currently in my second year at the University of Guelph, I'm pursuing a Computer Science major with a minor in Sports & Event Management. My proficiency in various programming languages and web development tools allows me to bring a diverse skillset to the table. As an Undergraduate Research Assistant working with Professor Nicole, I'm developing two chatbots for MCS2020 and MGMT1000. In addition, I'm working on several side projects that showcase my technical expertise while simultaneously allowing me to learn new languages and tools.
