Hi! I'm

Who Am I

  • I am a developer that believes in the potential that the intersection of medicine and technology has.
  • I have worked in a variety of industries such as education, finance, and most recently, I worked at company that makes surgeries easier.
  • I also enjoy mentoring as I've taught basic web development skills such as HTML, CSS, JS, as well as more advanced such as NodeJS at multiple events.
  • I've also put on events and released content on getting into technology through my grassroots organization - Bytesized.
  • Currently, I'm planning a large conference that will encompass engineering students and professionals from across Canada (ESCCO and OSPE's FYIC).
I'm seeking opportunities in web and software development for Summer 2023 - feel free to reach me at the any of the links above.
