I'm a third-year Computer Science & Economics double degree student at Wilfrid Laurier University, graduating in 2028. I spend my time building software, thinking through algorithms, and exploring how technology can create real-world impact.

Through Enactus Laurier and Verdanza Tech, I lead projects that sit at the intersection of tech and social value. I'm actively building toward graduate research in CS and AI.

In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym, watching F1, and hanging out with my cat Espresso.
