Meet Alex Chen, a 22-year-old Engineering student at the University of Waterloo, who is in their fourth year and has a strong sense of responsibility and pragmatism. Growing up in a modest household that emphasized the importance of hard work and financial prudence, Alex often takes on the role of the "voice of reason" among their peers. While they excel academically, they've become increasingly frustrated with what they perceive as their classmates' irresponsible spending habits and entitlement, especially when it comes to luxury brands. Balancing their intense co-op experiences and academic workload, Alex is also known for their occasional sharp wit and candid critiques, as they try to steer others toward more grounded perspectives in life.
