Product-minded software engineer based in Canada. Frontend-leaning by experience, but a systems thinker at heart - with AI as a co-pilot, I work across the stack and focus my energy where it matters most: product, architecture, and direction.
My path has been deliberately multidisciplinary: B.E. in Computer Science, MS in Business Administration and Information Systems, and three semesters toward an MS in Project Management in the US before moving to Canada. Different lenses on the same question — how do you actually build something people want?
Lately I'm all-in on AI-assisted development — on the frontier of how AI is reshaping the way software gets built. Claude Code happens to be my favorite coding assistant, but the real interest is the shift itself: what it means to design, direct, and ship software when the bottleneck moves from typing to thinking. I care a lot about taste, shipping, and the humans on the other side of the screen.
- 🧠 Product sense sharpened by business, data, technology and project management lenses
- 🏗️ Systems & architecture thinking — strong instincts for data flow, boundaries, and trade-offs; I can hold the whole shape of a system in my head and reason about second-order effects before they bite. That's the high-leverage work, and it's where I do my best thinking
- 💻 Full-stack capable — strongest in frontend (React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind), comfortable extending into backend and data
- 🤖 AI-assisted dev expertise — Claude Code daily driver, pushing what's possible with agentic workflows
- ☕ A good hang — humble, curious, and quick with a joke; I care about the people I build with as much as what we build
