About Me
Hi! My name is Lawrence Tang and I am a 4th year at UBC majoring in Computer Science and Statistics.
I wanted to pursue Computer Science because I love turning my little ideas into reality through code. I believe that I have found my passion here and I hope that one day I can be part of a project that could impact the world!
I still have a long way to go, but I will improve one leetcode problem at a time :)
