Hi, I'm Patrick,
Third year computer science student at the University of British Columbia with an intense passion for learning, creating and problem-solving. Whether it's at a hackathon, in the gym, or on the tennis court, I'm always looking for opportunites to hone my skills and expand my horizons.

About Patrick Zhou
I'm passionate about creating and problem solving in many fields of software development. As an avid scripter, I enjoy automating things with code and have a wealth of experience in designing and writing Python scripts. However, my current passion is game development; I submitted a winning game project at a hackathon and participated in GMTK Game Jam 2024, placing in the top 25% with my team.
Outside of tech, I'm a tennis and fitness enthusiast and currently work as an instructor at UBC Tennis Centre. Thriving off an interdiscplinary approach to creating and problem-solving, I am always seeking to incorporate my hobbies and my communities into the projects I create: I'm currently designing a website for the freelance tennis coaching company I co-founded and looking to develop my own turn-based tennis game.
