Spawned in Scarborough, Canada to immigrant parents. Mom worked in a glove factory, while Dad moved tires and delivered pizzas. After passing the English exam, the University of Toronto accepted my Mom on scholarship and she brought me to all classes. My dad was also accepted, though they realized it was a mistake but still let him in.

I was shy growing up and had a hard time speaking as my family didn't speak much English. I escaped to drawing, YouTube, and countless hours in front of the public library computer.

Passed the 4-hour entrance exam to get into the TOPS program, the most prestigious Science and Mathematics program in Canada. Having the TOPS brand saved me, as with the brand I went from an unknown immigrant kid to Ivy League bound.

Got into the M&T program at the University of Pennsylvania, one of the most selective undergraduate programs in the world. My parents said they were proud of me for the first time. I later disappointed them by turning down the offer to full send building technology companies.
