Engineer by training,
builder by habit.

Bio

I'm a third-year CS student at the University of Calgary studying on the Dean's List and enrolled in the Science Co-op program. I split my time between research on agentic AI systems and shipping production web apps as a freelance developer.

Right now I'm wiring a local LLM into ParaView via the Model Context Protocol so it can drive 3D volume rendering autonomously - and building marketing sites with Next.js, Tailwind, and Framer Motion for clients on the side.

Before software I spent two years as an electrical apprentice. That trained me to debug systems I didn't design, document what I touched, and finish the job before going home.
