Hello, I’m

Gabriel Castellon

Computer Science and Neuroscience double major with a Mathematics minor at the University of Toronto.

Home

Hey, I’m Gabriel. I’m studying Computer Science, Neuroscience, and Math at UofT’s St. George campus.

I love coding, life sciences, and math... and I LOVE fitness and cooking.

My courses cover coding, calculus, statistics, and biology, so I get to explore everything from solving problems with software to understanding the brain.

Outside of class, I stay connected to the CS community through CSSU. I’m also doing a focus in AI, and I love working in groups and sharing ideas.

Thank you for visiting! :)
