I’m a recent Computer Science/Human-Computer Interaction graduate from the
University of Waterloo. In my final year, I embarked on the adventure of a lifetime and studied abroad at the
University of Leeds. Now, I'm working full-time as an Associate Full-Stack Software Engineer at
Manulife. Just before that, I worked as a Software Engineer at
Wealthsimple and as a Product Consultant at
Deloitte Digital. Outside of work, I designed and developed products for social good at
UW Blueprint. Previously, I worked in cybersecurity at
Arctic Wolf and improved worker safety at the
WSIB Innovation Lab. Additionally, I created impact in design and engineering at
Tecsys, and as a Software Engineer at the
Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC).
I’ve always believed there was something inherently human about tech and that’s what I intend to explore. Combining my passion for psychology, design and development, I hope to create inclusive products that will impact the lives of others.
Apart from designing and developing, catch me rock climbing, snowboarding and finding the latest mountains to hike. When I’m not being adventurous, I can be found reading a book or binging my favourite shows on Netflix. Learn more about my literary and literal adventures
