Hobbies
Programming
Since 2015

- Contribute to Open Source projects (GitHub and GitLab)
- Compete in programming challenges (Halite II and Halite III)
Rubik’s Cube
2012 to 2015
I started solving 3x3x3 Rubik’s Cube when I was 12 and started competing in 2013 in Montréal. Afterwards, I learned how to solve other types of similar puzzles and did 3 more competitions where I would often reach the finals. I stopped competing, but I still solve puzzles every so often.
