About

Building AI Systems, Brick by Brick

I'm a Computer Science student specializing in Data Engineering with a 4.0 GPA, currently at Scotiabank as a Software Engineer Intern, where I lead a full-stack RAG AI Q&A system as Scrum Master and help redesign an institutional securities-lending trading portal. I also serve as President of Google Developer Group Sheridan, delivering workshops on GCP, BigQuery, and Gemini that have reached 250+ attendees.

Before that, I deployed cloud infrastructure on GCP as an AI Engineer at Flite Transport and managed 6+ NVIDIA DGX stations in Sheridan's Center for Applied AI, supporting 40+ researchers. In total my work has reached 1000+ students, from coaching FIRST LEGO League robotics teams to running Docker-based CTF infrastructure with ISSessions. Wherever I build, I design with modularity, speed, and measurable impact in mind.
