I'm a Computer Science (Honours) graduate from the University of Windsor with experience in software engineering, backend development, applied AI, cybersecurity, and mobile development. I enjoy building practical systems across the full development lifecycle—from designing APIs and databases to integrating machine-learning models, containerizing services, testing reliability, and presenting technical work. I am currently exploring new-graduate opportunities in software engineering, backend development, and applied AI.
