01 · ABOUT

Engineer by training, builder by nature.

I'm an AI Software Engineer based in Toronto with 6+ years building enterprise applications, APIs, and data-driven systems on .NET Core, Angular, Python, and SQL Server — including fintech middleware, card-issuance platforms, and BI dashboards used across multiple countries.

In 2024–2025 I completed an Ontario Graduate Certificate in AI & Data Science at Loyalist College, adding hands-on experience building LLM-integrated applications, computer vision models, and production-ready AI services in Python and FastAPI. I bring enterprise engineering discipline together with modern AI/ML capability.
