I build systems that reason messy, real-world data such as injury risk and mental health trends, and I enjoy making technology more accessible for all.

About
I'm a third-year Computer Science & Computational Cognition student in U of T's co-op program. I lean toward the parts of software where a system has to reason about messy, real-world data — injury risk, mental health trends, how people actually use an app.
Outside of coursework I'm usually balancing between my 2 roles: Assistant Help Desk Advisor at Robarts Library and IT Help Desk Analyst at the Faculty of Law.
