ABOUT THE SITE

Hi, welcome to my website! My name is Isaac Meadowcroft-Grijalva and I am a U3 Honours Computer Science student at McGill University. I built this site during summer 2020 in order to improve my web development skills and to keep me busy during the Coronavirus.

MY PASSIONS

I am a passionate coder who can spend many uninterrupted hours programmming. I love all things tech related and enjoy coming up with creative solutions to challenging problems. In my spare time, I also enjoy playing piano, composing music and working out.

MY GOALS

My career goal is to work as a software engineer on innovative technology that will help shape the future. I hope to one day be recognized for my dedication and hard work in the industry. I also hope to travel and explore my passions for music and composition to their fullest.
