I have had the pleasure of working with Benny since the start of our undergraduate degree at NUS. His attention to detail and meticulousness surpasses anyone else I've encountered in school. When Benny sets his mind on accomplishing a task, he does it and he does it well. A naive solution isn't enough for him; he aims to optimize everything. His passion for data structures and artificial intelligence is evident in the projects he has completed. Moreover, Benny cares for the people around him and aims to make them better. He is an excellent teacher who shares his passion for the subject with his peers. During group projects, Benny takes charge and knows how to delegate the workload to fit the strengths of his teammates. He has consistently demonstrated his leadership skills throughout the time I've known him, and I can wholeheartedly say he is one of the nicest people I've ever met!
