Hey, I'm CJ! I'm an aspiring graphics programmer/technical artist/game developer from Waterloo. I like coding and animating and languages and computers and reading and music. 

I attended Software Engineering Technology at Conestoga College between September 2023 and August 2024. Turned out software engineering wasn't my cup of tea, so I dropped out. Nowadays I'm just working on projects, volunteering at [Computer Recycling at the Working Centre](https://www.theworkingcentre.org/projects/computer-recycling/), and trying to teach myself a few things.

> I do not use generative AI in any of my work. At this moment, I do not plan on using generative AI because I do not need it: my goal is to learn, not to just get things done.
