My passion for technology and curiosity about artificial intelligence have driven my journey into computer engineering. Captivated by the workings of computers and math from an early age, I pursued a degree in software engineering, where I discovered a strong interest in AI and machine learning. A pivotal experience was collaborating on a machine learning paper, which fueled my desire to advance in AI research. Now, as a PhD student at the University of Ottawa, I am focused on computer vision in autonomous vehicle systems. Receiving the Dalai Lama Graduate Scholarship would be an incredible honor, supporting my goal to contribute to advancements in AI and autonomous systems that will shape the future of technology.
