Meet Alex, a 21-year-old Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo who carries a mix of skepticism and ambition. Once a wide-eyed freshman enchanted by the prospects of technology's promise to change the world, Alex has since grown disillusioned with the cutthroat corporate culture surrounding their peers. Despite their longing for meaningful innovation, they've decided to take a different path—teaming up with a like-minded upper-year friend to launch a security startup. Alex feels out of place amongst the clout chasers and is determined to prove that success doesn't always mean chasing the highest paycheck. On weekends, you can find Alex sketching out business ideas in their favorite coffee shop, a laptop and latte by their side, dreaming of a future where tech serves a greater purpose.
