Hi, I'm Aaron Loh!

I'm a passionate full stack developer with a recent milestone: our team's project, LureLore, was named a top 12 finalist out of 240+ projects at Hack the North 2024, Canada's biggest hackathon! This success has fueled my drive to create innovative solutions and expand my skills further. Over the past year, I've participated in multiple hackathons, including in-person events and a Microsoft AI learning hackathon, each experience deepening my expertise and creativity. Currently, I'm enhancing my full stack skills through IBM's online courses and developing a React Native app, "Habits Together," for collaborative habit tracking. A new portfolio showcasing my recent projects is also in the works. My journey in tech is driven by a constant eagerness to learn, create, and innovate, and I'm excited to bring this passion and growing skillset to new challenges and opportunities.
