Tech & Innovation Awards

Receiving these tech and innovation awards is an honour, but what matters most to me is the journey of exploration, problem-solving, and learning that led me here.

Throughout this journey, I spent countless hours experimenting with ideas, debugging code, and refining my projects with my group mates through trial and error. I’m grateful to my mentors and teachers for their guidance, my friends for being in this journey with me as a team, and to my parents for always supporting my passion for innovation.

I’m excited to keep understanding how technology works and using it to solve real-world problems.
