about me

My name is Abdullah Sajid (in case the rest of the website was too shy to say it out loud already). I have completed my high school education (A-Levels) in Pakistan from Aitchison College Lahore. I am currently an undergraduate studying Honours Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, Canada.

As part of my university education, I am open to employment as part of their "co-op program" which enables us to get internships at various companies.

why did i create this website?

I created this website for two reasons:

  1. To have a nice organized collection of all my different hobbies (coding, art, math, making games, perhaps even gaming etc.)

  2. To showcase my abilities. By creating a collection I want to be able to present it to other people (Not necessarily in a strictly professional way, which is why I am keeping a conversational, informal tone!). I aspire to build a name for myself one day, and potentially inspire others to follow.
