Hello, my name is Jay.
Growing up, I wanted to follow in my dad's footsteps and become an engineer—and I did, just not in the way I originally expected.
My dad is a Professional Engineer licensed under Engineers and Geoscientists BC (EGBC) and works as a structural engineer. What he does is fascinating, so I initially set out to become a structural engineer myself. During my undergraduate studies, I took courses in calculus, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and all the other engineering fundamentals. I pursued that path for two years until I realized something.
Structural engineering might not be for me.
Why? Because I took my first programming class in Python—and I loved it.
