About Me
Vynavin Vinod
Vynavin Vinod is a founder and full stack developer with a strong background in web and game development. His work explores practical applications of AI, education technology, and immersive experiences.
Vynavin Vinod began building technology from a deep curiosity about how things work, which led him to explore a broad range of technologies and frameworks.
As a Grade 12 International Baccalaureate Diploma candidate in Brampton, I build products across AI, EdTech, full-stack development, entrepreneurship, and policy innovation. My work ranges from education platforms and private local AI to Unity games, VR applications, and community technology.
I am bilingual in English and Tamil, with intermediate French, and I enjoy turning ambitious ideas into useful, testable products. My teams have earned six hackathon wins alongside other competition placements, while my research and public speaking work explores how technology can improve education and healthspan.
