About Me

I'm Hadi Youssef, a Software Engineering and Business student at Western University and the Ivey Business School with a passion for building at the intersection of technology, research, and entrepreneurship.

In my previous experience, I gained hands-on experience as a Machine Learning Research Intern, co-authoring peer-reviewed work on improving large language model accuracy, and as a Software Engineering Intern at SwarmZero, contributing to agent workflows and infrastructure for a successful product launch.

Beyond internships, I’ve explored projects that combine creativity with technical execution, from winning WaffleHacks with an AI-powered presentation builder to designing productivity tools that streamline task management.
