About

Builder with a musician's ear and an athlete's rhythm.

I started programming early and formalized it through AP CompSci A in high school. I completed a Computer Systems Technology diploma at BCIT in 2020 and am completing a Bachelor of Technology (expected May 2026).

Previously, I worked at Provincial Health Services Authority as a technical analyst on Procura, a scheduling platform for at-home healthcare workers. I love making tools that remove friction and create calm.
