Interests
Photography
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
— Aaron Siskind
Camping
Whatever form it takes, camping is earthy, soul enriching and character building, and there can be few such satisfying moments as having your tent pitched and the smoke rising from your campfire as the golden sun sets on the horizon.
— Pippa Middleton
Chess
Chess holds its master in its own bonds, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer.
— Albert Einstein
Music
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

Bence Karner
Senior Web-Developer at Tigercat Industries Inc.
During his time as a co-op web developer, Ezat demonstrated exceptional interpersonal and technical skills. With a can-do attitude, great communication, and comprehensive knowledge of web-based systems, Ezat quickly became an integral part of our team. Whether it was a new task that needed completion, or a surprise bug that needed investigation, Ezat was the first one to volunteer. He was eager to learn, intelligent, and had the skills we needed to complete our project on time. I whole heartedly recommend Ezat, and given the opportunity, I’d re-hire him myself.

I have worked with Ezat for three years at Conestoga college. He is a person who always takes initiative with creative ideas. His frontend development skills are exceptional and not to mention that he is prominent in using Azure DevOps by dealing with project pipelines, SQL databases, and securities setup. He is very supportive and always tries to take more work on his plate with the passion to better the quality of projects. I am lucky that I have been teamed up with him so that I could get through all courses with high scores.
