Meet Jake, a spirited 19-year-old first-year Engineering student at the University of Waterloo. Hailing from a small town in Ontario, he’s always been passionate about technology and enjoys good-natured banter with fellow students. After getting into a spirited debate about regional differences during a co-op networking event, Jake jokingly expressed his frustration with Australian culture, which ran contrary to his own close-knit, small-town values. He loves soccer and often trolls his Aussie friends for their love of rugby, unintentionally sparking some playful rivalry.
