About
I’m a software engineer based in Calgary. Since 2024 I’ve worked across four teams on React, Next.js, Firebase, GraphQL and Prisma, shipping features through code review, sprints and CI.
Outside client work I build my own products. Connecton, a 3D city for keeping in touch with the people who matter, is the one I’m proudest of: it taught me to put the rules that matter (XP, limits, ownership) in the database, not the browser.
Right now I’m learning Go, and looking for my next engineering role.
Software Development Diploma, SAIT (2025).
