Developer

I'm a recent Computer Science grad from the University of Alberta with a passion for learning. I love exploring different areas of technology, from building video games to creating web and mobile applications. I'm currently looking for new opportunities to improve my skills as a developer :)

Outside of coding, I'm an avid rock climber. I love spending time at the gym or adventuring in the mountains. I've also recently gotten hooked on running, completing my first two half marathons this past year. When I'm not on the move, you'll probably find me at home gaming, my current hyperfixation is Slay the Spire.
