About

Building thoughtful software that makes life easier.

I'm a Software Engineering graduate from McMaster University (Class of 2025) who cares about building products that genuinely make life easier for people. I'm always learning new tools, better patterns, and sharper ways to think. I'm adaptable when things change and persistent when they get hard.

I'm looking for a meaningful opportunity where I can contribute, grow with a strong team, and ship work that matters. When I'm not coding, you'll probably find me in the gym. Always grateful, always improving.
