About Me

Hello, I am Jared! On top of being versatile in both hardware and software, I enjoy discovering and trying new things out. From a software internship by the sunny beaches of Tel Aviv to a semester's exchange in Canada, I enjoy exploring new parts of the world and learning beyond the books. Beyond academics, one of my favorite meaningful hobbies is teaching/tutoring to pay it forward to the community.

Past Experiences

Currently a final year student in National University of Singapore under the Engineering Scholars Program pursuing a BEng in Computer Engineering. Intending to pursue a Masters, either in Business Analytics or Data Science and Machine Learning.

I am thankful to have multiple overseas stints to expand my horizons and learn from vastly different cultures. Under the NUS Overseas College Program, I did a 6 month stint in Tel Aviv, Israel, where I was a Business Intelligence intern in WSC Sports. Also, I am under the Student Exchange Program with the University of Ottawa, Canada, where I am taking a diversity of Computer Science and Engineering modules. These opportunities to spend nearly half a year in 2 vastly different counties have taught me plenty, and I am excited to share my experiences and apply what I learnt into new contexts. At present, my friends and I are running a small business and being the leader of the tech aspect of this small endeavor excites me, mainly as a hands-on entrepreneurship learning opportunity and to empower others.

Most of my past experiences revolve around Machine Learning, Data Engineering, and generic SWE roles. My current interested future job or internship roles are Data Analytics, Data Science, and Machine Learning. Do feel free to drop me a message or email!
