Software Engineer (in training) - backend systems, web apps & human-centered tech ,
I’ve built backend systems with Springboot in Java, Kotlin, and MongoDB. I’ve also worked jobs that taught me how to deal with chaos—Paramount+, SkipTheDishes, Sprint, T-Mobile. I know what it means to listen to real people.
At the University of Winnipeg, I’ve mentored international students, tutored peers, and represented my school at ICPC Regionals with an Honourable mention and IEEEXtreme (2nd in Manitoba, 14th in Canada).
I maintain a public journal where I write about tech, projects, and personal growth along the way.
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
