|---|
| My name is Hadi Almalki, and I attend Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary School in Waterloo, Ontario. The large scope of domains in which computers can be used to improve and enrich the world has been my primary motivation to develop and implement computer-based solutions to solve real-world problems. My enjoyment in the independent and self-directed learning, collaboration, and understanding needed to develop such solutions is the basis for my desire to pursue future studies in areas of science and computing. During my free time, I enjoy playing soccer, mountain biking, and reading. Some advice that I highly value is: excellence and distinction are achieved in an environment that facilitates diverse experiences, perspectives, and knowledge. |
