01 About

Results-driven AI and ML engineer with a continuous-growth mindset.

I have 4+ years of experience in software development and am skilled in Python, data science and AI application development, with a proven track record of delivering customer-facing software products and features.

My path runs from RF signal processing and medical-radar machine learning at McGill, through computer-vision inference at wrnch AI, to leading a multi-national team at Yulio Technologies. In 2026 I completed a Graduate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence at Seneca Polytechnic (4.0 GPA, President's List). I'm seeking to contribute to impactful AI-related roles.
