Awesome
Professor Henry is such a kind soul. He truly cares about his students well being and checks in on their mental health. Other professors should really learn from him.
Biography

Henry
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I am a driven engineering professional who integrates nature-based observation into winning engineering designs by researching the intelligent placement of reconfigurable antenna structures on arbitrary surfaces in 5G systems and beyond.
Experience
University of Toronto
Course Design Head Teaching Assistant
Revamped the APS106 Python Programming Fundamentals course structure by restructuring the course syllabus, introducing new student-centered tutorials and labs on contemporary engineering problems and interactive modules, and setting up the server using python scripts for simultaneously auto-grading 300+ students, resulting in TAs focusing more on teaching as well as receiving higher student evaluations for the course than previous years.
University of Toronto
Senior Resident Advisor
Led a team to provide 24/7 supervision and support within the residence and build a strong community by organizing programs and events, mediating conflicts, providing referrals, and responding to emergencies, which created a successful support network of 120+ local and international students.
University of Toronto
Ph.D Candidate
Formulated and verified a closed form mathematical expression for analyzing irregular 3D massive antenna structures including element positioning and orientation to create new reconfigurable and versatile antenna architectures for 5G and beyond, doubling the capacity of wireless channels in urban, suburban, and highway areas, and optimizing vehicular Massive MIMO antennas for speeds up to 500 km/h.
University of Toronto
Course Instructor
Led a team of teaching and lab assistants to teach Python for underperforming students repeating the course, by fostering a community-centered approach to empower students’ curiosity to learn and excel, resulting in a 7% higher class average than previous course iterations and winning the university-wide course instructor award.
Microsoft
Software Engineer Intern
Designed and demonstrated the first data warehouse in Egypt using C++ to revamp and reorganize the online Microsoft store for Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Azure purchases, now successfully launched online.
ITWorx
Software Quality Assurance Engineer Intern
Categorized and documented errors in C++ and Java developers’ outputs by preparing test cases to ensure quality assurance and reliability; was able to consistently detect errors after two revisions by Quality Control Engineers.
IBM
System Support Engineer
Led IBM’s Cloud Infrastructure for high availability clusters on Unix and Linux and documented technical requirements for Administrators to ensure client servers operate normally during system failures, resulting in less overall critical failures for tens of multiple billion-dollar companies
