I'm Rick, a third-year data science student at UWaterloo. I enjoy combining my technical skills with my creative side to build whatever I can think of. Some topics I'm currently interested in are the impacts of AI on education, how user data from social media apps is being used, and a field of math called measure theory. In my free time, you'll find me drawing, listening to KPop, or trying foods from all over the world.
