Biography<\/strong>
\nI\u2019ve grown a lot through Skills competitions over the past three years and I\u2019m thankful for the amazing journey so far. Representing Canada on a global stage at WorldSkills Shanghai 2026 will be exciting and overwhelming. The biggest challenge will be working quickly under lots of pressure, especially without Internet access, something I rely on for bug fixing. That said, I\u2019m mostly looking forward to meeting people from around the world and seeing how far I can push myself. It will be unforgettable!<\/p>\n

Interesting Fact<\/strong>
\nI play soccer and hockey. I also play chess, so lately I\u2019ve been working on a web app for analyzing games and generating reports.<\/p>\n

Skills for Success<\/strong>
\nProblem Solving has definitely been the most important skill for me. In web development, and coding in general, especially during competitions, things rarely go well the first time. Staying calm, thinking things through and coming up with solutions quickly is an underrated skill that\u2019s made a huge difference in my training and performance. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
