Launchpad for success

I chose to study computer science at Waterloo to pursue my passion for ideas at the intersection of technology and health care. I became interested in the field in high school, when I had the opportunity to make a prosthetic for a student I was tutoring. I’ve grown up hard of hearing, so I understand some of the ways that technology can really improve health outcomes.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
