About Me

Kamusta! I'm Kaye — a Software Developer at Clio. Here's a bit about my journey.

My journey started in 2013 in a small city in the Philippines. Learning about Ada Lovelace and Grace Hopper, one thought made sense: I want to be just like them.

That drive brought me to the University of Alberta's Computing Science program, where I graduated in 2024. Along the way, I gained hands-on experience across research, internships, and teaching.

Outside of tech, you'll find me going for walks and runs, watching ice hockey, reading romance, and spending time with my partner, family, and friends!
