About

Building real products since year one. Not just learning — shipping.

I'm a Computer Science student at Western University who builds things that matter — from AI pipelines that classify skin tones to data systems driving real revenue. I don't just study technology; I apply it to create measurable impact.

Selected as a TD Scholar (one of four university-wide), admitted to the Gifted Academic Program (18 of 5,000), and co-founded a company in my first year that grew 30% MoM. I organize communities, write clean code, and believe the best engineers also understand business.
