Sam JiaSoftware EngineerBuilding anything from the kernel to the web

Despite being introduced to programming at a young age, I really only became interested in computer science when I entered the University of Waterloo as a computer science student.

Throughout my undergraduate degree, I have had the chance to work as interns with a number of companies, ranging from start-ups to large corporations. As such, I have had the pleasure of working on all types of software, from working with web technologies to developing database engines to tinkering with kernel extensions.

Off work, I spend time bringing my - albeit unsuccessful - startup ideas to fruition, research and develop potential quantative trading models, and am now looking into game development.
