Elevator Pitch

I'm Kenji, a 3rd year university student at the University of Manchester and I had just finished my placement at Interact Software . Now, I have found myself working in AI and XR alongside Team Open Smart Glasses to augment people with the best productivity tools.

My interests are in the world of web, from frontend to backend to the cloud! I am currently diving more into AI and XR as I was recently inspired by their groundbreaking advancements in their respective fields.

Other than that, I also involve myself in a lot of extracurriculars, I am a Gold Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador and a GitHub Campus Expert, empowering youths with the power of technology.
