About Me

Who actually am I?

I am a Web Developer from Toronto, Ontario with a passion for collaboration and solving problems. After a decade working backstage in event production I attended HackerYou and began my journey in code. Looking forward I aim to hone my exisiting skills in front-end while expanding my knowledge in to full-stack development. I strongly believe in the importance of accessible and readable code.

Outside of work you will find me in Toronto's many parks with my dog, posting pictures of bats online, or playing roller derby with the Smoke City Bandits.
