About Me

I’m a Software & DevOps Engineer based in Toronto with a B.Eng in Computer Engineering from the University of Guelph. I specialize in cloud-native infrastructure, Snowflake data pipelines, and mission-critical microservices.

At Afflo, I ship backend features, harden Kubernetes infra, and design Snowflake pipelines to process massive data volumes daily, while also building a microservice for organ allocation to ensure life-saving reliability.

I also built FrameMax, an AI-powered iOS fitness app. I designed the architecture, wrote the Swift UI, shipped the Node/Express backend, and manage infra with Pulumi.

Previously at Shore Consulting Group, I improved operational efficiency, helped build a Kubernetes Operator, and delivered IaC migrations.

I thrive on solving complex problems for industries like healthcare and tech, and I’m excited to join teams pushing the boundaries of technology and impact.
