Kim is a third year software engineering student at Concordia University. Since I was young, I loved disassembling electronics and solving puzzles. Technology is much more than a passion for me. I have a natural need to create, imagine, and build.

Aniqah is a third year Computing student at Queen’s University in Kingston who is continually fascinated by these amazing devices we call computers and their impact on society. She serves as President of her faculty society, which is really neat but also really time-consuming. In her negative spare time, she can often be found getting involved in even more activities on campus. Once in a blue moon, you may find her studying. She is super duper excited about this year’s awesome speaker lineup and hopes that you are too!

When you think of Gracey, think of thrill rides. Horror films. Think of your highschool's class clown. Think of reality TV. Think of a wedding planner. A southern tailgate party. Think of the book John Dies at the End by David Wong. But also Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger. Mix in the movie Mean Girls. Think of a cat in the sun. You've almost got it. Add a hat. Perfect. There she is. Now come over and say hi, she would love to meet you.

Hey! My name's Paul and I'm a 3rd year student at the University of Ottawa, majoring in Computer Engineering. I attended CUSEC 2015 last year and had an amazing time, but I wanted the most out of the conference so I joined the organising committee as a head delegate! I think CUSEC is a great opportunity for undergraduate students, and I wanted to do my part in keeping its' great reputation up! See you in Montreal!
Hey everyone! I am currently a 3rd year student at Queen's University, specializing in Biomedical Computing! I have a big passion for clinical engineering and seeing how we can improve problems in operating rooms using software! Outside of computer science, I have a 1st degree black belt from 14 year of Karate, am a pretty avid concert-goer (I've been to approximately 20 in the past two years, although some of those were part of music festivals), and enjoy the usual cup of hot chocolate!
