About Me

Hello! My name is Matthew Danics and I am enrolled at the Ivey Business School University and Western University pursing a dual degree in Computer Science and Business Administration.

This past summer I interned at Amazon on the Consumer Payments team and got to spend the summer in beautiful Vancouver.

When COVID first started, I Co-Founded Canadian Face Masks to combat price gouging. I and was featured on TV right after I shaved my head ðŸ‘Ļ‍ðŸĶē

In my first two years at Western I ran educational workshops teaching students how to code at the largest technology club on campus.

When I'm not studying or working on projects, you'll find me kiteboarding. I have a passion for kiteboarding and love the thrill of landing a new trick that I've been attempting countless times. I have travelled to 11 different countries over the years seeking of the best kiteboarding locations that the world has to offer.
