About

Jai Malhi

I'm a full-stack developer passionate about inspiring change and innovation. As a Software Systems student at Simon Fraser University, I strive to merge my academic pursuits with my passion for technology.


My love for all things technology can be seen in my academic endeavors, personal projects, and work for different organizations. I focus on using my skills to positively impact all aspects of life.


When I'm not engaged in my academic or professional work, you can often find me exploring the outdoors, trying different cuisines, playing hockey, or jamming to some music. I am always open to new ventures and love getting hands-on experience!
