Harshit Jain

About Me

Building at the intersection of software & hardware.

I'm a motivated and curious student entering the Computer Engineering program at the University of Toronto, driven by a deep interest in technology, problem-solving, and innovation. Throughout high school, I built a strong technical foundation through the I-STEM program at Aldershot High School, engaging in hands-on projects across science, engineering, and computing.

Beyond the classroom, I worked as a Kumon assistant for over four years and gained teaching experience at McMaster's Venture Academy, running STEM camps focused on coding, robotics, and design thinking. I've explored Python, C++, Swift, and web technologies, and have been active in environmental initiatives through Grades of Green.
