About Me

I'm a second-year Electrical Engineering student at McMaster University with a strong interest in embedded systems, automation, and circuit design. I enjoy building efficient, hands-on solutions that bridge hardware and software. My approach combines technical depth with practical application, and I’m always looking to expand my skills through challenging projects and continuous learning.

Outside of engineering, I love using my free time to work on myself and refine who I am as a person. I have a strong passion for sports, video games, and music, often catching myself doing a combination of the three, whether that’s listening to music while shooting hoops or gaming with friends to unwind.

I also love spending time outside, whether it’s going for walks, exploring new places, or just getting some fresh air to reset. Fitness plays a big role in my routine, and I spend time in the gym focusing on weight training and personal discipline. I'm a tech enthusiast at heart — always exploring new tools, AI applications, or building side projects to automate everyday tasks. I value clean design, continuous growth, and staying curious in everything I do.

What I'm Working on Currently

I'm currently working as an Engineering Intern at Metex Heat Treating & Exactatherm Ltd. for the Summer 2025 term, where I'm leading a project focused on implementing a new company-wide ERP system. Outside of work, I'm pursuing certifications in both Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform. I'm also planning to begin several personal projects to continue sharpening my technical skills.
