Summary

Hey there! My name is Zahid! I am a 4 year Software Engineering student at the University of Calgary. Over the past summers I worked in many different camps and outdoor facilities. My main roles included facilitating summer camp programs and activities, cleaning and maintaining the Camp Centre. I also helped with building Tipis and lodges. In this capacity, I have refined my communication, problem-solving and adaptability skills. I love bringing enthusiasm to work and always eager to learn new skills

A little bit about me!

I love all things outdoors! (hiking, camping canoeing, kayaking)

I love traveling and been traveling all my life! I visited more than 20 countries. On my free time I play guitar with friends, write songs or go to the nearest climbing center. I also love learning languages!

I speak German, Turkish, Russian and English.

I have a SIN number and my student visa allows me to work full-time
