About my team
About my team (well, me really)

Team member: Naglaa Eid (aka nagheid or nag for short ;) )
I am a final year Software Engineering undergraduate student at the University of Ottawa in Ottawa, ON, Canada. No, I am not frozen to death up here, but getting there.
I am a final year Software Engineering undergraduate student at the University of Ottawa in Ottawa, ON, Canada.
Why I decided to join? As a busy student with finals this week, I decided to join a hackathon for the fun of it. And trust me, they are super fun. Ah, I feel the adrenaline already!!
If I am not coding, I am either climbing walls or trying to get discovered by a bear in a forest. Or finding a roof in town that is cool enough to hang out on.
Between CO-OPs and part-time jobs, I have around 2.5 years of software experience. With an engineering degree, you'd think when do I have time? And I don't. That's why I am joining this hackathon. After 5 years of studying engineering and filling my resume with high-tech jobs. I realized I want more "hackthony" experience ... yes, I joined a local hackathon or too but they are usually on long weekend and noone shows up, so everyone goes back home after pizza. But, I did join one hackathon by Facebook and it was the BEST thing ever. After that, I started treating all my assignments as hackthons. Pfff of course, I don't leave them till the last minute just so I am forced to pull an all-nighter and get it all working from scratch fully functional with extra features just for fun. No! ... Yes, yes I do. It feels so AWESOME to create something spectacular in a heck of a sleepless night.
About my skills and what I are going to do?

About my skills
=======
I worked on back-end, front-end and everything in between. So far, I worked on 6 different projects and each used different technologies and were in varying fields (networking, cloud/OpenStack, vision processing, web development (check out OrbitHub.com), medical applications, ...)
Some of the languages I know: C, C++, HTML, CSS, Python, PHP, Perl, Java and others
What I are going to do?
=======
The project will be related to a distributed systems algorithm and will target themes 1, 2 and 4.
If I say anything more, I will have to find you and kill you.
But it will be something awesome!
