Biography
My name is Dhvani Patel and I am a grade 11 student from Westwood Community High School located in Fort McMurray, Alberta.One of my favourite things to do, and also my strength is coding. My favourite subjects are science (mostly physics and computer science) and math. My hobbies include designing websites and programming apps. I simply love technology and I recently ranked 2nd in Canada for the Canadian Computing Competition. I have also been on the robotics team for 4 years now and I was the lead programmer for our team during the FLL Razorback World Championship Tournament. I certainly plan on pursuing science in my future studies. Being a part of MACOY (Mayor's Advisory Council on Youth), along with my 8 years of soccer, has taught me that everyone has strengths that if combined, can accomplish anything.
