John Lai, Web Application Architect
John is a computer programmer and helped build the GCDA website. He likes to create anything that makes people think, "Hey, that's pretty interesting." John hopes you enjoy reading gcdamagazine.com because a lot of people worked hard on it!
About John: John is currently working on his Evermight Framework - a web software program that makes more web software programs.
Something unique about John: "I like to do weird things to make people laugh."
John's Passion: "I love martial arts. I think ninjas are awesome. I build igloos. Look at this igloo from 2008 - it stands ten feet tall with two rooms and fits six people. One day, we'll have a BBQ in an igloo."
John's Message: "I like to watch Naruto, a cartoon about little kids training to be ninjas. Here's my favourite scene:
Hyuuga Neji, an elite ninja says, "Those who become King are born with that fate. It's not something you can become just because you want to."
Naruto, a failing ninja student replies, "Stop complaining about how you can't change fate and destiny. I don't understand the suffering of the Hyuuga clan, but if you think it's impossible to change fate and destiny, then don't do anything! After I become King, I will change the Hyuuga clan for you!"
Andy To, Jr. Developer
Andy is currently studying at UofT, hoping to finish his 4 years of study with a specialist in artificial intelligence.
Andy's Passion: "I enjoy anime, manga, and light-novels. My favorite title being the
Twelve Kingdoms by Fuyumi Ono which was made into an anime from a light novel."
Andy's Message: "My contributions to this site were mainly styling, making the site look and flow how it does now. It was an enjoyable experience and I hope you enjoy the GCDA site too."
