Education
I'm a 23 year old graduate student and researcher at the University of Waterloo. I am currently working on a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a focus on cryptography. I have a B.Sc. and M.Eng. in Computer Engineering and Computer Science from the University of Louisville's J.B. Speed School of Engineering.
Me & Wikipedia
Most of the stuff I edit on here heavily will likely be related to computer engineering, computer programming, cryptography, video games, and mathematics.
A lot of times I just click through random pages reading and I'll fix grammatical and spelling errors.
For more information, my homepage is here.
Why I Wiki
- Because I believe in free knowledge
- Because I want to help others
- Because I like to learn
- Because I enjoy being in contact with those who have similar ideals as myself
