ABOUT

I'm a recent graduate from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Computer Science and a BSc in Integrated Sciences in the fields of physiology, nutrition, and immunology.

Most of my recent work is MERN and TypeScript including building REST APIs, query engines, and full-stack apps end-to-end. Additionally, I've had production experience in the Microsoft Power Platform for an application of over 50 daily users. I'm drawn to problems where systems thinking and clean execution matter.
