Learn About Me

Building things people actually use

I'm a full-stack developer who's always needed to know why things work. As a kid, I couldn't just use a website. I had to understand what made it tick.

My work ethic comes from delivering newspapers through Manitoba winters. Those Thursday evenings taught me that showing up matters, especially when people count on you.

What I love about AI and ML is how accessible it makes problem-solving. I'm drawn to projects where I can see the direct impact, whether I'm debugging a tricky issue or watching someone use a feature I built.

Outside of code, I stay grounded through soccer and reading. When I commit to something, I see it through.
