About Me

I'm a Computer Science student at Toronto Metropolitan University, passionate about building products that drive positive impact. My journey spans technology, entrepreneurship, and public innovation — with a growing interest in how tech can improve lives at scale.

🚀 Startup & Innovation

I'm actively involved in Toronto's startup ecosystem through my participation at the DMZ and various initiatives in the Zone Learning Program at Toronto Metropolitan University.

💻 Technical Journey

With hands-on experience at Mastercard, Unity Health Toronto, and Crewscope, I've contributed to projects in fraud prevention, healthcare technology, internal tooling, and team productivity, combining technical execution with a focus on user and business needs. At Toronto Metropolitan University, I'm building a strong theoretical foundation in Computer Science while applying practical skills in real-world settings. I'm especially interested in how technology can improve public sector systems and how thoughtful product design can make GovTech solutions more effective, secure, and human-centered.

🌍 Community & Public Impact

As a former PDSB Trustee candidate, I care deeply about civic participation and using technology for social good. I'm currently working towards developing more public-focused technologies through my work at the Government of Canada and through my own personal projects. Whether it's improving education, supporting public infrastructure, or enhancing civic engagement, I'm driven by the belief that technology should serve people first.
