Lucas Slunt
I am a fourth-year Computer Science student at the University of British Columbia’s Okanagan campus, minoring in Visual Arts.
I enjoy working in well-rounded teams while solving difficult problems and developing creative technical solutions. Outside of academics, you will find me in the gym, spending time outdoors, or trying different apples.
Below is a selection of some of my favorite creative projects. While some were completed as part of my coursework, most were personal initiatives intended to apply my learning in complex topics, or simply for the fun of building something new.
