Bio

Hello! My name is Janelle Wong and I am currently a fifth year student studying Business and Computer Science at the University of British Columbia. I live in Vancouver, BC in Canada and I am really passionate about learning new skills. I have a few software engineering internships under my belt, as well as a few executive positions at clubs as a graphic designer.
Aside from programming, I have a burning passion for arts and craft making, with particular interest in graphic design and UI/UX, which is mainly what I want to focus on at Riipen. There are not many programs to learn UI/UX at my university and therefore, I would love to gain experience and skills outside of school.

Check out my website with my art portfolio to see more on my artistic projects and background!
