His background includes leading Shopify-integrated platforms, modernizing healthcare authentication and EHR workflows, and shipping high-usage React Native apps and visualization tools for PyTorch/TensorFlow. A former co-founder and lead engineer, he pairs entrepreneurial instincts with rigorous academic roots in computer science and engineering from Toronto Metropolitan University and the University of Waterloo. He’s as comfortable debugging memory issues in patient-facing apps as prototyping blockchain-backed audit trails, and he’s known to balance code sprints with soccer and late-night guitar practice.
