About Me

I am a Software Engineer based in Toronto, Canada, with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Guelph. My experience spans full-stack development, DevOps, and cloud infrastructure management.

Currently, I am employed as a Jr DevOps Engineer at Afflo, optimizing organ allocation processes through infrastructure migration (Azure to GCP, Terraform to Pulumi), implementing GitOps with Argo CD/Kargo, and enhancing Kubernetes cluster management.

I built an iOS App, FrameMax — an AI-powered fitness app. I designed the system architecture, built the iOS frontend in Swift, and developed the backend using Node.js/Express. I also manage the cloud infrastructure using Pulumi.

Previously, I gained valuable experience as a Solutions Developer at Shore Consulting Group, enhancing operational efficiency for businesses through IT solutions and contributing to Kubernetes Operator development.

Beyond coding, I enjoy rock climbing, camping, travelling, and strength training. I am always eager to learn new technologies and tackle challenging problems.
